agricultural workers' rights

Agricultural workers have the right to fair wages, safe working conditions, and reasonable hours. They are protected from discrimination and harassment and should receive proper breaks and access to necessary safety equipment. Many workers are entitled to overtime pay and collective bargaining rights through unions. Employers must comply with both federal and state laws designed to ensure respectful and safe treatment. If these rights are affected, workers can seek assistance from government agencies like the Department of Labor or worker advocacy groups to ensure fair and lawful treatment.
