This is exactly why I have emphasized, along with nearly all of the rest of the libertarian left, community and worker control, Chuck0. If community members and the workers who work inside plants - or whatever work arrangements they feel are best for their needs - have control over their goings-on - which is what anarchists of all stripes have historically advocated - why would they tolerate "boring or dangerous" conditions - or noxious pollution that kills them? Because they are masochists?
