Massachusetts labor groups plan to outline priorities

BOSTON — Labor groups are planning to converge on Beacon Hill to outline their goals for the new two-year legislative session.

Marcy Goldstein-Gelb, executive director of the Massachusetts Coalition for Occupational Safety and Health, said those priorities include better protections for vulnerable employees like temporary workers and day laborers.

She said labor groups, including the Massachusetts AFL-CIO, want to make 2015 a banner year for halting workplace deaths and injuries.

Also Wednesday, supporters of a $15 minimum wage in Massachusetts are planning to launch the first of what they say will be a series of protests on the 15th of every month to press for what they call a living wage.

The first protest is planned for Logan Airport.

The state's minimum wage just jumped from $8 to $9 per hour, the first increase since 2008.
