Episode 167: They Died For Your Chicken Dinner; Populist Roars Across Montana
Episode 167: Support the podcast here: www.patreon.com/WorkingLifePodcast It’s pretty likely that when you cut into a nice juicy roast chicken at home or in a restaurant a worker in some poultry processing plant was injured cutting up that chicken into commercial pieces. And in some cases, it’s even worse: in January, two workers in poultry plants were killed in the space of a little over a week. I talk about their deaths and the brutal working conditions in poultry plants with national safety and health expert Debbie Berkowitz.
