(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)The Employment Justice Center's Worker's Rights Manual, aprimary source for information about the legal rights of workers for lawyers and activists in DC, Maryland and Virginia, is now available on-line at no cost. “Written with the help of contributing editors who are leaders in their fields, the manual addresses a wide range of employment issues, including wage and hour, unemployment compensation, workers' compensation and discrimination,” says EJC Executive Director Barbra Kavanaugh. “We recognize that the community of workplace justice advocates throughout the metropolitan DC area rely on our manual and have chosen to make this on-line version freely available. We are grateful to all of the volunteers who have helped us create this year's manual, and to the Chet Levitt Fund for Employment Law and the DC Bar Labor and Employment Section for their funding for this year's manual.
