Jakara staff serve as a resource for workers who are terminated unlawfully, help file wage claims with the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, and help file claims for workers’ compensation and unemployment. Staff helps workers fill out the paperwork, make follow up calls, and troubleshoot when there are hold ups.
Jakara staff meet a worker who had not received information about her right to paid leave. They help her write a letter to the company asking for the hours she was eligible for under SB95. A couple of weeks later, the worker gets the pay she was due.
