LAX STANDARDS: Assessing Flying Food Group LLC’s Labor Practices Under Intyernational Labor Standards
“International labor standards also apply to safety and health, non-discrimination, and living wage requirements. They require policies to prevent workplace injuries and illnesses “by minimizing…the causes of hazards inherent in the working environment.” They proscribe discrimination in employment “on the basis of race, color, sex, religion, political opinion, national extraction or social origin” as well as sexual harassment in the workplace. They define a living wage as “the wage level that is necessary to afford a decent standard of living for workers and their families.” The report details complaints and cases related to these international labor standards. State authorities have cited FFG for multiple violations of safety and health regulations, and instances of two recent workplace fires within a four- month period are currently under investigation. FFG has also had to pay more than $1 million in back pay to workers for violation of the Los Angeles Living Wage Ordinance and laws on job and wage protection for Covid-displaced workers.” Click here to read the full report.
