Shift Change: Uniting Workers for Fair and Safe Workplaces
Shift Change is a bilingual digital platform created for and by Chicago hospitality workers to address the widespread issues of wage theft, sexual harassment, and toxic work environments in our industry.
Developed by Survivors Know, the CHAAD Project and WorkIt Labs, this platform empowers workers to challenge harmful systems in the industry and organize for change.
