What is the 24 hour workday?:
- Government-sponsored 24-hour workdays only exist in NYC: The government, insurance companies, and home care companies work together to abuse women-of-color workers with racial violence.
- Long-hour workdays: Years of sleepless 24-hour workdays have destroyed tens of thousands of women’s health. Hear it from the workers. This extreme form of long-hour workdays is prolonging the work hours of workers of many other industries. Office workers, artists, and medical professionals are forced into a race to the bottom. Read the YASifesto here.
- Wage theft: Each 24-hour shift is only illegally paid for 13 hours. Hochul’s wage theft regime is dragging down all New Yorkers’ conditions. Call your elected officials to urge Gov. Hochul enforce labor law now!
