Safe Work for Undocumented Migrants

Avatar: Community Member Community Member

What problem would you like to solve?

The lack of jobs for non-documented immigrants.

Why is it important to solve? Why is it relevant for the community?

Most non-documented immigrants tend to work in dangerous conditions and put their lives at risk just to earn a living. These jobs are dangerous and the immigrants working them are severely underpaid.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

Provide programs for non-documented workers to work legally and under safe conditions. Also, provide the means to ensure fair wages. Employers should be open to hiring undocumented migrants.

Who would that help?

Undocumented migrants who are employed, working under cruel and harsh environments, and unfairly underpaid.

What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?

Bronx.
