Study calls for better treatment of workers By Nancy Cleeland, Los Angeles Times
About one-third of all U.S. workers earn less than $15,000 a year and an additional 20 percent make between that and $25,000, the study said.
Many of those workers lack healthcare, paid sick days and other benefits that higher-wage workers take for granted. In that world, a relatively minor setback, such as a flat tire or sick child, can set off a financial crisis from which a family might not recover for months.------------------------------------------- posted 6:55 AM :: reference link ::
