Every day working people in our city have their hard-earned wages skimmed or outright stolen from them. Employers withhold tips, force people to work off the clock, pay less than the minimum or prevailing wage, pay less than promised, and sometimes run off without paying at all. For poor and working people who already struggle to make ends meet, even a small theft of wages can be disastrous for their families. Cumulatively, employers steal billions of dollars from millions of workers - money that is lost to families and communities, exacerbating the current economic crisis. Please join DC Jobs with Justice on Thursday, Feb. 18th to learn more about this hidden crime wave and how you can fight it. Workers' Rights Board Hearing Start: 6:45 pm
End: 8:30 pm
