Sheltered Sub-Minimum Wage Environments in the Past

 

Fellow Federationists:
 
The National Federation of the Blind is actively seeking individuals who are
currently competitively employed, but who have worked in sheltered
subminimum wage work environments in the past.  If this has been your
experience, we would greatly appreciate it if you would answer the following
questions:  
 
.                    What type of work did you perform for subminimum wages?
 
.                    What type of work do you do now?
 
.                    Is it competitive? 
 
.                    Do you earn the federal minimum wage or more?
 
.                    What has changed in your life since you started earning
the minimum wage or more? 
 
.                    What is your opinion of the Presidential Executive
Order to raise the minimum wage for federal service contract employees to
$10.10 per hour?
 
.                    Would you be willing to speak to a reporter about your
experience?
 
Please send your responses, along with your contact information, to
cdanielsen at nfb.org as soon as possible. You may also respond by telephone by
calling (410) 659-9314, extension 2330.
 
Thank you,
 
Chris Danielsen 
Director of Public Relations
National Federation of the Blind
