We need an Essential Worker Bill of Rights
Last week, Senator Elizabeth Warren and Representative Ro Khanna proposed an essential worker bill of rights to provide all essential workers with:
- Health and safety protections
- Robust premium compensation
- Protections for collective bargaining agreements
- Truly universal paid sick leave and family and medical leave
- Protections for whistleblowers
- An end to worker misclassification
- Health care security
- Support for child care
- Treat workers as experts
- Hold corporations accountable for meeting their responsibilities
Add your name to tell Congress that domestic workers, like all essential workers, deserve pay and protection under an essential worker bill of rights.
