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.

That was true in the beginning, yes. But now that this topic is not any more a special thing for some game or movie but developing into the modus operandi, media companies start to crack down on those rules and try to alter the deals with as much force as possible to gain an advantage. The strike of the SAG right now is only the beginning of reactions to these new developments of maximizing profits by taking advantage of uneven bargaining power.
