Why Organize?

Just Compensation

You deserve a living wage, benefits, fair scheduling, and job security so you can continue to pay the bills. After all, it’s your work that makes the business run.

Safe Working Conditions

You deserve a safe and fair workplace, including clear rules, grievance procedures, and adequate safety equipment so you can do your job without fear.

Dignity and Respect

You deserve dignity and respect, which means freedom from harassment, discrimination, and intimidation at work, adequate shift hours, and regular schedules so you can lead a full life in and out of work.

Collective Decision-Making

You deserve a say in decisions that impact your work. Without you and your co-workers, little to no value would get produced. Why should your boss control your workplace without your input?

“I'm doing this because I want to guarantee the health and safety of my customers, my team, and myself!”

Shift manager, Taco Bell

“I was scared in the beginning, but we have so much support from parents and everyone around us that I don't feel scared anymore.”

Jazmin R.

Teacher, Bright Horizons

“Word spread fast, and to this day strangers will come into the store, asking us how the strike went.”

Aria C.

Employee and organizer, Good Vibrations
