Mayor Bill de Blasio says the city will pay $13.50 for the first 40 hours of work in a week, then $20.25.
Especially needed are workers to remove snow and ice from bus stops, crosswalks, fire hydrants and steps.
Those interested must be at least 18 years old, eligible to work in the United States, and capable of performing heavy physical labor.
They must register at sanitation garages around the city each day from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., with two small photos, plus two forms of ID.
Let’s not forget workmen’s comp afterwards!
What a joke. The guys going house to house earn about 50$ per hour, at least.
This should take to task all those who complain of no available jobs. It may not be glamorous or great paying, but to those strong and healthy it is honest work. Let us see how many take advantage of this need.
it might hurt foodstamps so people prefer not to work
