Abstract:

A report released on Labor Day 2000, by The Common Sense Foundation, a Raleigh-based Think Tank, compares labor in North Carolina to the other states. Among worker areas compared are wages and benefits; income and poverty; workplace inequality; and occupational safety. The report ranks the state 30th in the country. On the positive side, workplace injuries are down.
