The Albany Park Worker Center, meanwhile, serves as a single hiring hub for day laborers, home cleaning professionals, and office cleaning professionals. The center helps pair Chicago businesses and individuals with the skilled professionals they need for day labor work, and handles contracts to eliminate wage theft.
