In this eye-opening episode of Safety Corner, we delve into the complex challenges faced by undocumented workers in the construction industry and the ripple effects on safety, wages, and legitimate workers. We explore the size and impact of the immigrant workforce and shine a light on the exploitation they face from hiring consultants, false promises, and temp agencies.
The conversation also tackles the growing competition between legal and undocumented workers, the downward pressure on wages, and how these dynamics are affecting workplace safety standards. Join us as we highlight the stories that need to be told and discuss practical solutions to create a fairer and safer industry for all workers.
