Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

Can it be because of the fact that they do deliveries in the US using cars mainly while in Europe it's mostly with bikes/e-bikes?
Honestly that seems like a huge factor to me. The more car dependent places I've lived the less delivery was a thing.
Might be true, almost all of my deliveries to work are by bike. But that's in the city centre where going 200m take about 20 minutes by car.
On the other hand, where I live, it is almost always a car, because it is faster and more convenient for the drivers.
But I feel like the company also has something to do with the quality of the service for the end user. I feel like Wolt, which originates from Finland, is not funking up the economy here.
