Street Corner Hiring Draws South Labor Pool
Hollywood Florida and other Southern cities rely on street corner hiring as thousands of mostly Negro laborers seek daily work at casual outdoor “corners” near rail lines and restaurants. Foremen choose the first three workers to their trucks, paying about 1.25 to 2 dollars an hour with no welfare or Social Security. Many men spend days waiting, while some earnings peak at roughly $150 in a six day week. Local officials acknowledge barriers to full time work, though state employment staff say some could qualify for jobs if they applied.
