In factories across Bushwick, workers routinely suffer abuse. Workers are not permitted to leave their machines to use the bathroom without permission of a supervisor. Factories are unsafe and unsanitary. The right to organize, receive minimum wages, overtime pay are violated routinely and impunity by local factories and workers who demand these rights face severe retaliation.
The Workplace Justice Project/Make The Road By Walking is helping to fight against these sweatshop conditions. The group meets weekly to share experience and strategize collectively on how to ensure workers’ rights at work are respected.
