Worker rights organization educating, organizing, and advocating for justice
"A long-standing not-for-profit worker center (in operation since 1991) that represents about 1,400 clients—roughly 20% in the hospitality industry—and helped lead the two-year coalition to create the new city labor office; the organization documents abuses such as below-minimum wage pay, misclassification as independent contractors to avoid overtime, and other forms of employer exploitation, and it uses tactics like personally introducing aldermen to affected workers to persuade officials and generate enforcement action." - Ashok Selvam
