55 MIN | ENGLISH | USA | 2019 | DOCUMENTARY
The 1938 Fair Labor Standards Act created the revolutionary workers’ rights protection: the minimum wage. Yet as the film uncovers, Section 14(c) still provides a terrible and abusive exemption that allows employers to pay “special minimum wages”—wages less than the Federal minimum wage—“to workers who have disabilities.”
Followed by a Reception where employers and job seekers are encouraged to network- bring your business card!
