What Do We Do?
Our bilingual staff and volunteers match day laborers with employers who are in need of temporary labor. Potential workers who have the skills and background required are referred to employers who then negotiate the working conditions and wages. Workers are expected to complete the tasks requested to the best of their ability and employers are expected to be fair.
Work performed varies from construction work to yard work, domestic services to handy-man related jobs. If there is a need for a work to be done, we can find a worker!
All information provided by employers and workers to SEEC staff is strictly confidential.
SEEC's services are free for both employees and employers.
