Centro de Trabajadores Unidos en la Lucha (CTUL)
2015
In order to amplify the leadership of low-wage workers on these issues, the members of Centro de Trabajadores Unidos en la Lucha (CTUL), a low-wage worker led organization in the Twin Cities metro area, formed the Workplace Rights Defenders (WRD) Program in June 2014. Over the following year, CTUL members completed the first phase of a project to survey workers in low-wage industries throughout the Twin Cities metro area, including: janitorial, restaurants, manufacturing, construction, temp agencies, hotels, retail and others. This report presents the preliminary findings of the survey.
