About this event
Part of the San Francisco LaborFest - At: ILWU Local 6 – 99 Hegenberger Rd. Oakland
There are less than 200 OSHA inspectors for the 18 million workers of California. The Covid pandemic led to the deaths of many workers at food processing companies like Foster farms and many nursing homes because of a failure to provide PPE and educate the workers. Additionally seriously injured workers face a gauntlet of obstacles getting prompt medical treatment and compensation. Many workers say that workers comp has been captured by the employers, insurance companies and a State and Federal administration that is representing this interests rather than workers.
They will report on this crisis and how it is destroying workers and their families.
