Lee, Jennifer J.2020-05-072020-05-072015-09Shortchanged: how wage theft harms Pennsylvania's workers and economy (2015)http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12613/208This report unmasks a shocking, but exceedingly common problem facing low-wage workers in Pennsylvania. Wage theft, the illegal non-payment or under payment of wages, is a pervasive problem hurting hundreds of thousands of low-wage workers across the state each week. Stolen wages deprive the state of tens of millions of dollars of valuable tax revenue each year. Wage theft also penalizes law-abiding businesses, who are at a competitive disadvantage compared to employers that break the law.55 pagesengAll Rights ReservedWages--Pennsylvania--PhiladelphiaUnfair labor practices--Pennsylvania--PhiladelphiaUnfair labor practices--Economic aspects--United StatesText
