for Workers Rights: Learning from Experience About this Report This report and the database it draws on, Measurement Units for Workers Rights, were produced by the Workers Rights Information Project, a special project of the Lawyers Committee for Human Rights. The project was conceived and directed by David Roe, who also wrote this report. Research and data compilation for the database were performed by Margaret Lamb, Henneke Brink, Art Potter, Sue Wilson, Emily Dahm, Jennie Pasquarella, Elisabeth Wickeri and David Roe. Analysis for the report was performed by Margaret Lamb, Art Potter, Sue Wilson, Emily Dahm, Laurie Berg, and David Roe. The web-based database application was designed and developed by Marina Sverdel, using ASP 3.0, VB Script, Java Script, and HTML on the front end and SQL Server with stored procedures for data storage and retrieval on the back end. Mark Chichester helped put it online. Jenny Notestein and Gary Bond provided overall technical supervision. Editorial reviewers for specific sections of the report included Laurie Berg, Eric Biel, Heidee Stoller, Raymond Audain, and Shana Tabak. Margaret Lamb, Kevin Kolben, Mila Rosenthal, and Michael McClintock provided overall editorial review and assistance. The project was also assisted by a number of outside experts who generously provided review and comments at various stages. Their help was invaluable, and any errors or omissions are despite rather than because of their contributions. Finally, the project owes special thanks to Justine Nolan and Kristen
Engberg for guidance and support. |
