Here is a question for you guys, do you believe that
un-documented workers that are employed over here in the US, deserve to receive
the wages and safe workzones they deserve. These companies
that hire undocumented workers know that these workers cannot find work elsewhere
and are able to abuse this power. They
will hire workers for wages less than minimum wage in some cases and work them
for long hours. They also have unsafe
work zones for some workers, such as construction workers. The construction companies won’t hold safety
classes before entering the job and allow these workers to work in unsafe zones
with no training. Doing this, a lot of
undocumented workers have died and or have been seriously injured in these
unsafe zones. A large percentage of
these un-documented workers don’t receive all the wages they are entitled to, because
these companies know that the ndocumented workers can’t go to the authorities to report them.
Even
though these workers are here undocumented, they are still human beings. They are doing the work, and they deserve to
be paid. They have families and homes
just as everybody else and they need to survive off the wages they work
for. How would you feel if you worked a
long week doing hard labor and you are out of money come payday, and when you
go to get your paycheck the employer gives you one third of what you should
have been paid? This kind of
mistreatment would not stand if it was an American Citizen, why should it be
any different for an undocumented worker?
People
here undocumented is a totally separate issue; this is an issue of fairness and
the defense for the common human being.
What needs to be done about this issue is that these companies that are
willing to hire undocumented workers need to be held accountable for their
actions. First off the safety issue,
undocumented or not, needs to be taken care of first. An unsafe workplace should never be tolerated
and these deaths or injuries should never have to take place before we do
something about it. Next thing that
needs to be stopped is the unpaid wages for the work that has been done. Regardless of if the worker is legal or not,
if that person completes the work, that person deserves to be paid. We as America are better than this and it
really makes me sick that this type of mistreatment takes place. We cannot keep turning our heads the other
way and let these injustices take place, and we need to take these issues head
on. This issue needs to be stopped and
stopped now!
Here is a video on for you to watch and maybe it will help you understand that this is actually taking place.
