Los Angeles, CA A recent report titled "Wage Theft and Workplace Violations in Los Angeles: The failure of employment and labor law for low-wage workers" documents a particularly high rate of workplace violations in Los Angeles. "This study focuses on low-wage workers," said Ruth Milkman, one of the study's authors and a sociology professor at the University of California, Los Angeles, and the City University of New York. "Our focus is the low end of the labor market where many legally mandated standards are not being observed."
