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.

OK. But those things definitely are.
Free parking, insurance, hell... Even weekly activities don't necessarily make or prevent a company from being shitty. #6 could be an indicator, but by itself, it's not enough.
Not providing health insurance definitely makes a company shitty.
You realize it doesn't say that and this wasn't happening in the US. The candidate pulled out a piece of A4 paper. Something not used in the US very often.
What other country ties health insurance to employment?
I'm genuinely curious because I thought the US was the only one.
Last job I worked had 38 hours per week of work, free parking, health insurance, and was a terrible company.
