The Van Nuys Day Labor Center, operated by Instituto de Educacion Popular del Sur de California, offers a Day Labor Program that provides a dignified way for workers to seek employment. Through four community job centers, the program offers literacy, English classes, and information on health, labor, and immigrant laws, creating a safe alternative to street corner solicitation.
In an effort to combat exploitation and unsafe conditions, the center allows day laborers to set their own minimum wage, recognizing the challenging nature of the work they perform. Employers can request workers either in person or by phone, with no fees charged to either party. The program aims to connect employers with honest, organized, and respectful workers, promoting fair labor practices and mutual respect.
