Mexican Consulate hosting free labor rights workshops
More than any other ethinic group, Latinos suffer more minimum wage and overtime violations by employers, according to Lisa Heaton, heads communications for Washington's Department of Labor and Industry. Latinos are also more likely to be injured on the job and have the greatest number of work-related fatalities.
That's why, Heaton said, it’s imperative for the Latino community to be informed about the resources at their disposal.
The series of workshops at El Centro de la Raza in Beacon Hill, are part of National Labor Rights Week, sponsored by Mexican consulates in 50 U.S. cities.
The sessions are free and open to the public, said Sylvia Cabrera, head of the legal department for Seattle's Mexican consulate.
The initiative was kicked off in Washington D.C. when ambassadors from El Salvador, Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic signed agreements with the Department of Labor, pledging to protect immigrant workers from unscrupulous employers. This is the first year Seattle is participating.
Other local workshops– both in English and Spanish – will cover workplace rights relevant to women, and what to do if employers don't pay the wages they owe.

November 2nd Protest at Mexican Consulate in Seattle - El Enemigo ...

The Tacoma LPSG is not initiating the protest below, but we are doing all that we can to support it. Not only because we are a human rights organization but also because many of the people involved in the Oaxaca struggle are indigenous people and belong to indigenous organizations. In the direction given us by Leonard Peltier, he has stated many times that the struggle of his support organizations are not just about his case, but are also about human rights and the struggles of indigenous people. So we are asking that all people who believe in a free and just world to please come out for this protest if they are able to do so.
