Janitors Say Supermarkets Are Still Locking Them In By Steven Greenhouse, The New York Times
Five janitors said in interviews that supermarkets in Brooklyn, Queens and the Bronx still locked them in, with fire exits blocked or padlocked, even though the Fire Department was alerted to the problem last June. Fire officials, who have not made the issue a high priority, say they have not found any instances of locked-in employees, although the workers' advocates say the department's investigations have been half-hearted and flawed. The lock-ins are an effort to prevent workers from stealing merchandise, many say.
