Fredrickson, Caroline

Under the bus : how working women are being run over Caroline Fredrickson - New York : The New Press, 2015. - viii, 246 p. ; 22 cm.



"Caroline Fredrickson is a powerful advocate and D.C. insider who has witnessed the legislative compromises that leave out temps, farmworkers, employees of small businesses, immigrants, and other workers who fall outside an intentionally narrow definition of "employees." The women in this fast-growing part of the workforce are denied minimum wage, maternity leave, health care, the right to unionize, and protection from harassment and discrimination-all within the bounds of the law. If current trends continue, their fate will be the future of all American workers."--Provided by publisher.
