For over 50 years, Bet Tzedek has set the standard for innovation and excellence in poverty law. In that tradition, Bet Tzedek established the Employment Rights Project ("ERP") in 1999. ERP seeks to enforce minimum labor standards in the workplace by assisting low-wage workers through a combination of individual representation before the Labor Commissioner, the Department of Labor, litigation in state and federal court, legislative

advocacy, and community education. Our cases involve non-payment of minimum wage and other wage-and- hour violations; workplace discrimination; illegal retaliation in the workplace; and human trafficking for forced labor. Pursuant to a new initiative, the ERP is working with the partnership with the California Domestic Worker Coalition to help enforce the employment rights of in-home caregivers, residential care facility workers,

housekeepers, and nannies, and is seeking an attorney to undertake this work.

This position is eligible for Bet Tzedek Legal Services' hybrid / remote workplace designation. While the primary workplace is Bet Tzedek's offices, at the discretion of the immediate supervisor, the employee may be permitted to work remotely or may be required to work in other locations depending on workload / business obligations.

$72,495.22-$82,001.88 (DOE / DOQ)
