DOL Seeks Injunction Against Company for Employing Minors at Meat Facilities | |
The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) is taking legal action against Fayette Janitorial Service LLC, seeking a court-ordered temporary restraining order and injunction over the company’s employment of minors. This janitorial service, involved in cleaning meat processing plants across Virginia and Iowa, reportedly had minors working overnight shifts, handling hazardous industrial cleaning chemicals and equipment such as head splitters and meat saws. With operations in roughly 30 states, the DOL’s investigation into Fayette is still underway, highlighting a broader concern over child labor practices in hazardous industries. Child labor, especially in dangerous settings, continues to be a pressing issue in the U.S., underscored by recent tragic incidents and regulatory crackdowns. The Fair Labor Standards Act strictly limits minor employment in high-risk occupations, including most roles within meat and poultry processing facilities. Despite these regulations, violations persist, as evidenced by the death of 16-year-old Duvan Perez at a Mississippi poultry plant and another 16-year-old at a Wisconsin sawmill, both occurring in 2023.
