Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

I'm loving all this industrial action in America recently. Richest country in the world should be paying it's workers better.
First company to give their workers what they want without even negotiating gets me as a customer for life.
Those companies do not make the news.
This is cause the ones who redacted the price increase own the news.
That's what made me a Chapman's Ice Cream fan (in Canada) because of how they treated their workers during the pandemic. They gave a 2 dollar raise during the pandemic, making it permanent where so many other companies hoped it would be temporary, then a year later gave a $1 raise to fully vaccinated people, then six months later matched that for everyone else. That's how, as management you show your workers how valuable they are.
