DEMAND that EMDH provide better working conditions for EMDH student workers

Stephanie Morstatter Associate Director of Event Management and Hospitality

Student workers at McAlister's and EMDH at large have been experiencing a variety of issues and grievances where in which they wish to see change.

Some of these negative experiences include (but not limited to):

Sick day infractions (illegal)
The removal dish room workers
Understaffed/skeleton crews
Unaddressed sexual harassment at work
- No formal complaint process
Unaddressed racial discrimination at work
- No formal complaint process
Longer closing times
Exposure to harsh and unsafe chemicals
Low pay (Up to $14.50/hr)
Poor worker training
Manager level work without manager level pay
No overtime pay

This petition aims to address the EMDH management in order to create change in the current unsafe, unfair, and downright deplorable working conditions. Student workers, who also have all the normal responsibilities of a Redbird, have to deal with these issues on a daily basis. This needs to change.

We need the removal of sick day infractions. We need more support during our shifts at work; including the increase in staffing. We need a formal resolution process for sexual and racial discrimination. We need to end the usages of harsh chemicals in the kitchen and around the oven. We need a raise.
