Program
El Centro offers a safe, indoor place where workers can gather each day as they seek daily jobs. The staff identifies special skills of workers, enters their information into a database, and advertises the availability of day laborers throughout the community. Employers hire workers for temporary, daily, and full-time employment. El Centro's staff helps employers identify dependable workers, assists in resolving any difficulties between employer and employee, and insures that all workers receive fair and agreed upon wages with no fees to employers.
