Arizona Republic Guild

https://www.azrepublicguild.org

https://twitter.com/azrepublicguild

We are reporters, producers, columnists, copy editors, social media experts, photographers, videographers and news assistants who call Arizona home. Some of us have decades of experience while others are just beginning their careers. Two very important things bring us together: We care about serving our community and holding the state’s institutions accountable.

But we’ve watched our newsroom shrink and our footprint in the community start to vanish with it. We’ve been subject to annual layoffs, stagnant pay and dwindling benefits.

It’s time to have a seat at the table.

It’s time to have a say in our working conditions.

It’s time to unite to build our vision for this newspaper and its place in the community.

Workers Organizing For a Voice.
The Campaign to Organize Digital Employees (CODE-CWA) is a network of worker-organizers and their staff working every single day to build the voice and power necessary to ensure the future of the tech, game, and digital industries in the United States and Canada.
We work at major multinational tech companies and tiny startups. We work at small indie game studios and AAA game publishers. We work at top down corporations and equitable worker co-ops.
We use our collective strength to improve conditions for temp, vendor, and contractor workers; to fight against the unethical use of our labor; to end hiring, wage, and retention discrimination; and to ensure that our work is a benefit to our society, not a burden.

This story, our story, where everyday folks come together in break rooms and at rallies and form brand new unions and struggle together -- despite the fact that it is always difficult -- this story will continue to be told, because we will continue to work together for a more equitable future.

Labor Media, News, and Publications

Labor Lab

https://www.laborlab.us

https://twitter.com/LaborLabUS

LaborLab is a nonprofit watchdog organization that tracks, monitors, and reports on the union-busting industry. We believe that workers have a basic and fundamental right to form a union and that anyone attempting to limit that right should be held accountable.

We also believe that in order for workers to use their rights, they first need to know what those rights are. Too many don’t. In fact, a large majority of workers don't know about their legal right to build power in the workplace through unions and protected concerted activities. LaborLab fills an important informational vacuum for workers regarding the right to unionize, with a special emphasis placed on Sections 7 and 8 of the National Labor Relation Act (NLRA).

Labor Notes

Worker Rights

National Labor Relations Board (NLRB)

https://www.nlrb.gov

The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is comprised of a team of professionals who work to assure fair labor practices and workplace democracy nationwide. The National Labor Relations Board is an independent federal agency vested with the power to safeguard employees' rights to organize and to determine whether to have unions as their bargaining representative. The agency also acts to prevent and remedy unfair labor practices committed by private sector employers and unions. The National Labor Relations Board protects the rights of most private-sector employees to join together, with or without a union, to improve their wages and working conditions. If you believe your rights have been violated, or that an employer or a union has engaged in unlawful conduct, you may file a charge through one of our regional offices. Petitions for representation and decertification elections may also be filed at regional offices.
