About this Event
Alejandra Domenzain, MA
The pandemic has intensified workplace health and safety concerns, while also stirring unprecendented organizing and advocacy to expand worker protections. This webinar will explore what still needs to be done to advance workplace health and safety, with a focus on centering front line, low wage, and immigrant workers. Case studies include lessons from United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW), who are winning historic victories for supermarket and retail workers, and insights from SEIU’s Fight for $15, which has supported more than 100 actions among non-union fast food workers.
