Uline Accused of Exploiting Mexican Workers, Paying Fraction of US Wages
A recent investigation revealed that Uline, a major office supply company, employed Mexican workers at significantly lower wages than their American counterparts. These Mexican workers, brought to the US on tourist or training visas, earned daily wages equivalent to hourly rates paid to US employees, lacking benefits like health insurance and 401(k)s. Further allegations surfaced concerning the mistreatment of temporary US-based workers, who were allegedly subjected to freezing warehouse conditions without adequate protective gear, highlighting potential labor violations. Uline has yet to respond to these serious allegations.
