The Problem: The Case of the Marginalized Workers
You have decided to sub-contract out your grounds maintenance work. You have solicited bids for landscaping, a revamped irrigation system, and maintenance.
You notice that one of the bids is coming in at $25,000 for the work and a one year contract while the other bids are coming in at $30,000. As you talk with others in the community, the rumbling in the grapevine is that this particular company is not ethical in their hiring practices -- they may not check carefully for immigration status so that they can avoid issues regarding workers rights. However, the work the company does is supposed to be top drawer as is the work of the closest competitor.
