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.

For the life of me I can’t see the benefit to return to office. I don’t know why they push it so hard.
Because the other CEOs who don't understand how people can work remotely are doing it and they want to fit in by forcing their employees to do the same.
Proof that remote work makes for better and more effective employees means nothing, they just want control. Same reason they force people to follow specific office hours and mandate overtime that just drags out work that could be done in four days if they have flexible schedules.
City governments have been pushing hard because they're worried about their tax base and economies - not so much for the office space itself (though that's in danger), but the ancillary businesses like coffee shops, lunch places, and car parks. It's a shitty reason, as they could take the opportunity to rearchitect office space into livable housing and solve the problem that way - but they don't want to.
