Queer? In the private sector? Wondering what's left of your rights at work?
This series hosted by friends of EWOC will answer your questions & give you a roadmap to protecting yourself & your coworkers
In light of recent executive orders and agency actions that threaten LGBTQ+ employees' rights, we're hosting three virtual town halls to help equip private-sector workers nationwide with the legal knowledge needed to navigate and protect their rights in the workplace.

The erosion of workers' rights comes from many places. HKM Founder and Partner Dan Kalish testified in front of the @FTC this week that even when a worker wins in court on a noncompete, the legal fees alone can bankrupt them. #endnoncompetes #hkmforworkers prospect.org/labor/ftc-forum…
We support banning non-competes because freedom to work supports our economy from the bottom up and middle out. A company's resources will always outweigh an individual's resources–which is why it's so important that stronger safeguards for employees are in place. #workersrights

OSHA has refused to support America’s farmworkers. As a result, 5,600+ farmworkers have now tested positive for COVID. America’s food supply relies on these workers. It’s essential that we protect them – we should include the FARM Act in the COVID bill.

I’m proud to join @32BJSEIU to walk Yeral to return to his job after he was illegally fired for using sick leave. Workers should NEVER fear losing their job for using their right to sick leave. I commend his bravery for filing a complaint with @NYCDCA.
A Chipotle worker filed a complaint with us after being ILLEGALLY fired for using sick leave. Our office fast tracked the complaint and was able to get him his job back and back pay. If you would like to file a complaint go to nyc.gov/workers

Black workers disproportionately live in states with the lowest benefit levels + the highest barriers to receiving them. Without the $600 federal payments, the most an unemployed worker in Florida or Alabama can receive is $275 a week. #ProtectAllWorkers
