June 15 - June 21, 2009

One of the things that crossed my desk this week was a story that came out on CNN. It is about undocumented workers getting compensation after being hurt on the job. It is a bit of a no brainer, but I put it out there for people to comment both here at the site and on the list-serv. Most of us are in agreement. If you want, you can read the story and comment here.

The other thing that I saw and hit me like a ton of bricks was learning that British Airways asked its workers to work a month for free, nice. huh. You can read about that here.

There were a other pieces that hit the site in the last week. If you missed anything or want to revisit the stories, they are all compiled below.
