New York sweat shop? Legals/Illegals? Who knows?
Another skimpy article. I have a no mercy policy towards cheating, thieving scum employers that abuse immigrants, legal or illegal. I don't have much sympathy for the scum that try to cheat any employees.
Accused scumbags
A garment manufacturer that made clothing for Macy's, the Gap and other retailers cheated its workers out of $5.5 million in wages, state labor officials said Wednesday.
Employees at the Jin Shun Inc. factory in Queens put in 12-hour days, six or seven days a week, but weren't paid overtime or a proper minimum wage, authorities said.
Most of the employees were Chinese immigrants.
State Department of Labor Commissioner M. Patricia Smith said that besides paying "sweatshop wages," the company engaged in an illegal cover-up.
