 Living Wage Coalition \n415-863-1225, sflivingwage@riseup.net\n\nYunuen, 
 Balbina, Claudia, Amalia and Joel work for Preferred Building  Services. 
 They get paid the San Francisco minimum wage of $10.74 per hour. They 
 endure abusive and unsafe working conditions and sexual harassment. The 
 work involves heavy lifting and the risk of serious injury. A supervisor 
 arbitrarily cut hours from eight hours per day to six hours and said that 
 any additional hours would need to include sexual favors. The company does 
 not provide paid sick days that are required by San Francisco law or pay 
 medical bills for injuries on the job as required by workers compensation. 
 \n\nThey have picketed outside the offices of KGO radio, which they clean, 
 and on December 2, they filed charges with the federal government for 
 sexual harassment. The supervisor has retaliated by cutting the shifts for 
 Balbina at One Kearny and 74 New Montgomery. At another building, the 
 supervisor’s relatives overburdened Claudia who is pregnant, requiring 
 her to go to the hospital and almost causing a miscarriage.\n\n They are 
 calling on tenants and clients to tell Preferred Building Services to 
 listen to their demands and not ignore them. Contact the building manager 
 of One Kearny St,  Derrick Chang, at 415-788-1133 or dfchang01@gmail.com. 
 They are demanding $15 per hour, a full eight hour day and the right to 
 organize without retaliation.\n\n
