A city immigrants' rights group is launching a smartphone app that aims to protect day laborers from wage theft.

The Jornalero App allows day laborers to document and share information, including number of hours worked, wages owed and employer history.

Members of the Jackson Heights advocacy group New Immigrant Community Empowerment, also known as NICE, developed the app.

Their goal is to help undocumented workers who are exploited and make it easier for them to file a complaint with the Labor Department.

"Wage theft is a very common occurrence, you know," said activist Charlie Uruchima. "Day laborers are robbed on a daily basis all over the city...We have workers who come in everyday that need some sort of consultation, some sort of help because a contractor picked them up two days ago and they don't know what happened because the guy never paid them what they owed them."

The Jornalero app will be available in both Spanish and English.

It's slated to officially launch in April.
