      I don't know how common this is, but even one instance is too much. These contracts are for A LOT of money. The profit margin after paying workers is phenomenal. No reason to wrong those that make the work happen

    I know of companies in the union right now in Southern California that make their employees work Saturdays with no pay in order to keep them busy. Buy tools for the job, out of pocket. This needs to be addressed with in the union first. The guys don’t speak up because their names get exposed and nobody hires them for telling. Can we be anonymous? If we speak up? and what will be done about the issue? This company has been slapped in the wrist before, the guys are scared because they’ve been told if they take their tools the union will fine them but what about the contractor that is supposed to provide such equipment??

      He has no choice, they are trespassing on private property. If they really meant all of this they would take all of their evidence to the police and see if criminal charges are possible for the checks. Once the cops come around the site conducting a lawful investigation the workers would have been paid no doubt. There are laws to follow when doing this kind of stuff and this page can't go around acting like vigilantes or they risk jail time.
