DAY LABOR COMMUNITY MEETING WITH CHICAGO COMPANY PAPER SOURCE'S OWNER

WEDNESAY, MAY 17TH AT 5:30PM

SAN LUCAS CHURCH 2914 W. North Avenue

Dear Community Supporters:
San Lucas Workers Center is educating corporations about the abuses in the day labor agency industry. One high profile Chicago corporation, Paper Source, agreed last November to end its contract with Ron's Staffing, one of the most abusive day labor agencies, and to move the temp workers to a Code of Conduct-compliant agency. Now Paper Source has reneged on its agreement with the community and refuses to fire Ron's Staffing.

Sans Lucas got owner of Paper Source, Jim York, to come out and meet with the community!

San Lucas Workers Center and the Paper Source temporary workers need your support now to pressure Jim York to finally end his contract with Ron's Staffing.

Jim and Paper Source don't want to cut ties with Ron's and are intimidating workers to stay at Ron's.

Around half of the 40 temporary workers have successfully moved to the new Code of Conduct-compliant agency and have received a raise in pay and paid holidays! The rest of the workers are afraid to move to the new agency, they fear losing their jobs.

please confirm your attendance with Ari 773 573 6633

If you are interested in playing a role to speak on behalf of the injustice facing these workers, we need you!
