Board Members
The Workers' Rights
Board is a public forum where workers can bring complaints against employers
for violating their rights in the workplace. The Board is particularly
concerned with protecting the rights of low wage workers, who are often
women, immigrants, young workers, and workers of color, as they strive
for justice in their workplaces.
The Board is composed of community leaders who intervene with employers
and the public to help resolve situations that threaten workers' rights.
The Board believes that safe, living wage jobs, where workers are not
discriminated against for speaking up for their rights, are the back bone
of a healthy community.
To accomplish its goal the Workers' Rights Board will attempt to resolve
issues in a variety of ways. Workers' Rights activities may include:
- Meeting with employers
who have been accused of violating workers rights or resisting efforts
of workers to have a voice on the job.
- Holding public
hearings or press conferences
- Supporting and
stregthening the democratic rights of workers of working people, including
the right to organize, through community education.
- Establishing community
standards about fairness in the workplace and corporate responsibility.
