I'm a Frito-Lay Factory Worker. I Work 12-Hour Days, 7 Days a Week
Hundreds of workers at the Frito-Lay plant in Topeka, Kansas are striking for the first time.
Hasnain says:
This is horrifying.
“Many of the 850 workers at the facility say they work 84 hours a week with no days off. Workers are nominally supposed to work eight-hour shifts, but because of shortages, workers are often forced to add on an extra four hours before or after their shifts. Workers call these extended shifts "suicides," because they say the schedule kills you over time. Some workers haven't had a single day off in five months, including Saturdays and Sundays.”
