Plainfield City Hall Annex — Approximate Daily-Pass Prepayment Site. A proposal to start charging admission at Plainfield's year-old Rushmore Aquatic Complex collapsed this week when a city council motion to introduce the fee ordinance failed to get a second.

HelloFresh warehouse workers in Newark filed lawsuit alleging discrimination, harassment, forced labor

HelloFresh warehouse workers in Newark filed a class-action lawsuit alleging discrimination, harassment, and forced labor. The lawsuit claims HelloFresh managers and supervisors threatening violence, using racial slurs, denying bathroom access, and threatening to call U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement against Latine and immigrant workers. According to the lawsuit, HelloFresh laid off about 400 temporary employees on short notice just one day before the state’s Temporary Workers’ Bill of Rights was set to go into effect, which guarantees temporary workers stronger labor protections. Plaintiffs are seeking compensatory, punitive, and statutory damages, severance pay, legal fee reimbursement, and pre- and post-judgement interest.
