News of the sudden bankruptcy of Paseo, a legendary Seattle sandwich shop, took many by surprise. But what was more shocking was the accusation that it had been cheating its workers. Wage theft is an underreported but prevalent problem, and the city of Seattle is hoping to address the troubling trend with a new Office of Labor Standards to enforce fair labor laws. What's the business community's response to proposed civil penalties? How will the city monitor businesses compliance with worker pay and paid sick leave?
