Even
today, sweatshops have not disappeared in the United States. They keep attracting workers in
desperate need of employment and illegal immigrants, who may be anxious to avoid
involvement with governmental agencies. Recent studies conducted by the U.S.
Department of Labor found that 67% of Los Angeles garment factories and 63% of
New York garment factories violate minimum wage and overtime laws. Ninety-eight
percent of Los Angeles garment factories have workplace health and safety
problems serious enough to lead to severe injuries or death.
