Day Laborers are men and women looking for employment in open-air markets by the side of the road, at busy intersections, in front of home improvement stores, and in other public areas.
Due to the informal nature of day labor market, day laborers are vulnerable to many threats on the job workplace injuries, exposure to dangerous or toxic workplace conditions, harassment from employers and law enforcement authorities, unregulated work hours, lack of access to legal and other support services and rampant wage theft.
