All people should have dignity, safety and respect at work. People deserve jobs that don’t kill them. Jobs shouldn’t risk the health and safety of our families and community. Yet during the pandemic companies like Amazon put profits over people and asked workers to risk their lives so people like Jeff Bezos and corporate stockholders could get even richer.
But workers are fighting back across the country demanding respect, higher pay and safer working conditions. We have a chance to make sure San Diego workers are treated fairly.
Center on Policy Initiatives, International Brotherhood of Teamsters Local 542 and the Environmental Health Coalition have come together to fight these abusive conditions.
