On the Job: A Newcomer's Guide. 3.
Michael, Jean
A bilingual pamphlet containing practical law-related information for recent Russian Jewish immigrants to New York City, this document concerns employment. Following a brief description of the Newcomer series, 10 questions are listed, each followed by an answer. Questions asked include illegal employment; discrimination; sexual harassment; descriptions of fair labor pay standards; joining labor unions; the right of an employer to fire or lay off employees; the power of unions regarding fired employees; proper working conditions; workers' compensation; unemployment insurance; and the difference between Social Security and Supplemental Security Income. A final page, titled "Where to Go for Help," lists the addresses and phone number of nine relevant government service and community resource agencies. (CBC)
