Report: H-2B Workers Need More Safeguards

"Foreign guest workers are in need of more job protection because they incur big debts to travel to the United States and can face threats of dismissal or deportation if they complain about low wages or harsh working conditions, said a report being issued Thursday. The report was prepared by Penn State's Dickinson School of Law and the New Orleans-based National Guestworkers Alliance, an advocacy group for guest workers." - Times-Picayune, June 20, 2012.
