Your labor rights in the United States as a Latino: Learn how to protect yourself at work!

It is important to know and spread the labor rights that Latino workers have in the United States. These rights are protected by federal and state laws and can make the difference between a fair and safe work environment and one that is exploitative and dangerous.

Some of the labor rights that Latino workers have in the United States include:

• The right to fair minimum wage and to receive payment for all hours worked.
• The right to a safe and healthy work environment, including the right to receive training in safety and occupational health.
• The right to a fair work schedule and to receive payment for overtime hours.
• The right not to be discriminated against in the workplace because of your race, ethnicity, religion, gender or sexual orientation.
• The right to freedom of association and to join a union.

It is important that Latino workers know their rights and know how to report any violations of them. Additionally, employers must respect and comply with labor laws that protect all workers, including Latinos.

As a community, we must work together to promote and protect the labor rights of Latino workers in the United States. This will not only benefit Latino workers, but will also help build a more just and equitable society for everyone.
