Over the past ten years DDA has been employing payment methods which trap low income workers into a never ending cycle of low/below poverty income and take advantage of workers.
DDA is a major distributor of Verizon Phone books. I list Verizons name in this because in some respects they are facilitators of this by using DDA as a cheap distributor of their phone books to save money.
DDA hires individuals as independant contractors to deliver their phone books.
This is a very good system except when abused by companies like DDA
The way it works is DDA implements a daily pay system for its phone book delivery people.
This sounds great at first glance. But as you look further into their system you start to see what occurs.
DDA is known to pay the lowest rate in the industry. Many times paying as low as 8 cents per book when the going rate is 20 to 25 cents to deliver phone books door to door.
This occurs frequently in low income areas such as Worcester, Ma. and Providence, RI.
This isn't relegated to just the poor areas. But the poorer areas do see the lowest of lows in pay rate.
Now here is what happens. They advertise in the local newspapers of the towns they are to deliver which says something like this.
""Help deliver the Verizon phone book. Daily pay.""
