Industrial segregation refers to the intentional separation of different industries within a specific area or region. This can happen for a variety of reasons, such as zoning laws, government regulations, or market forces. The goal of industrial segregation is often to keep certain industries separate from others in order to prevent negative environmental, social, or economic impacts. However, industrial segregation can also lead to inequality and disparities among different industries and their workers.
