Plant Worker Loss of Income Information
Many plants along the coast in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida are directly connected to the seafood and fish processing industry. The workers at these plants are going to be as affected as the fisherman and oyster farmers from the spill. Many people don’t realize how many people are involved in getting the fish, crab, oysters, and shrimp from the water to their dinner table. The workers at seafood processing plants, storage plants, and more are crucial to the seafood industry. As the oil slick continues to grow and fishing grounds close, these workers are facing the same fate as the men and women who catch the seafood. With less seafood coming in, plants will have to start looking at ways to reduce costs. Unfortunately, reducing the number of workers or the number of hours employees work is usually one of the first ways to reduce costs.
