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 do. Your own time is your own time. I don't want to be going to work the next day to be asked first thing what I'm doing about all the emails I was sent last night. Thinking about or reading about work is still work.
I'm not against being sent an email per say, but if I'm expected to read it and they're making my phone light up with notifications whilst I'm outside of my paid hours, it's a problem.
My company (24/7 production plant) has a culture of having Do Not Disturb on after hours and email/Teams really being us for "you'll see this tomorrow". It's great! Takes some unlearning on new people coming in, with that and fully unplugging for PTO
Yeah same here, especially because I live in a very different time zone (Korea) than most of my coworkers (Europe).
