Connecticut Residents with Brain Injuries Face Unfulfilled Employment Promises and Unfair Compensation: U.S. Department of Labor Offers Support and Guidance
"Are you in Connecticut and dealing with a brain injury agency provider that promised you a job, hasn't paid you for your art, or is paying below $15.69 an hour? You deserve better. Get in touch with the U.S. Department of Labor by phone at 1-866-487-9243 to learn what to do next."
In a recent advisory, individuals in Connecticut who are engaged with brain injury agency providers and have encountered broken employment promises, unpaid art compensations, or wages below the state's minimum threshold are encouraged to seek intervention from the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL). The agency emphasizes the rights of disabled workers to fair treatment, equitable pay, and the fulfillment of all employment promises. Affected parties are urged to call the DOL directly at 1-866-487-9243 for comprehensive assistance and information on how to address these concerns. This initiative is part of a broader commitment to safeguarding the employment rights of individuals with disabilities, ensuring they receive the respect, compensation, and opportunities they are rightfully owed.
