Underscoring her stated intention of strictly enforcing the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis announced the launch of the department's “We Can Help” campaign in a speech in Chicago Thursday. Spearheaded by the Wage and Hour Division, it is designed to connect low-wage workers with Department of Labor (DOL) services with a focus on addressing wage and hour issues.
According to the DOL website, “The campaign will place a special focus on reaching employees in such industries as construction, janitorial work, hotel/motel services, food services and home health care. It also will address such topics as rights in the workplace and how to file a complaint with the Wage and Hour Division to recover wages owed.”
