In what has been described as "the crime wave no one talks about," billions of dollars worth of wages are stolen from millions of workers in the United States every year. The scope of these abuses is staggering-paying employees far less than the legal minimum wage, purposefully misclassifying employees as independent contractors, illegally denying workers overtime pay-but there are ways to respond. Nationally-recognized labor activist Kim Bobo's "Wage Theft in America" is an incisive handbook for organizers, workers, and concerned citizens on how to prevent the flagrant exploitation of America's working people. Offering a sweeping analysis of the crisis and providing concrete solutions, with special attention to what a new Presidential administration can do, "Wage Theft in America" addresses one of the gravest issues facing workers in the 21st-century.
