New Report on Colorado Sheepherders
Ever wondered about the range of people you could help with your law degree? Colorado Legal Services just released a report on the employment status and abuses facing migrant sheepherders. They found that many of these workers are severely isolated, underpaid, “on call” around the clock, and frequently face abuses such as lack of access food, communication, personal documents, and more. The report is fascinating, and highlights the range of legal issues at play from immigration law to employment and contract law.
