Wo Worker's Justice Project Case Study

The condition of low paid immigrant workers is far from present in USA. These workers suffer from direct and indirect discrimination that affect them and their life. Sometimes workers are subjected to inhuman working conditions; they are over worked and underpaid. Most of the times the low paid immigrant workers are victims of racial discrimination as well. To eradicate this situation and to provide them with a voice and platform, Worker’s Justice Project, a Brooklyn based organisation was set up in 2010. This organisation aims to train the workers and ensure positive change in the work environment, where they will not be discriminated against.
The main objective of the Worker’s Justice Project is to ensure safe and dignified working conditions for low paid immigrant workers.
