THE WORKERS' CENTER SEEKS TO EMPOWER PEOPLE WHO WISH TO "RENEGOTIATE THE SOCIAL CONTRACT" IN WAYS THAT BUILD CULTURES OF RESPECT AND REASONABLE COMPENSATION IN EXCHANGE FOR THEIR LABOR. WHEN WE'RE CONTACTED BY SOMEONE WHO WANTS TO ORGANIZE WITH OTHERS IN THEIR WORKPLACE, WE PROVIDE INFORMATION, GUIDANCE, SUPPORT AND ENCOURAGEMENT TO ASSIST THEM IN ACCOMPLISHING THEIR GOALS. THE WORKERS' CENTER ALSO WORKS WITH LOCAL AND REGIONAL LABOR UNIONS TO PROMOTE COMMUNITY AWARENESS OF WORKERS' RIGHTS TO DEMOCRATIC DETERMINATION AROUND COLLECTIVE BARGAINING AND TO INFLUENCE EMPLOYERS TO RESPECT UNION MEMBERS' RIGHTS. THE WORKERS' CENTER'S PHYSICAL OFFICES ARE A SHARED WORK AND MEETING SPACE FOR OTHER SMALL NONPROFITS AND SOCIAL JUSTICE ORIENTED ASSOCIATIONS. DUE TO THE ONGOING COVID PANDEMIC, WE INSTITUTED AND ENFORCED STRICT SAFETY GUIDELINES FOR STAFF/SUBLESSORS WHO NEEDED TO COME INTO THE OFFICE WHEN THEY WERE UNABLE TO WORK OR MEET REMOTELY.
