Letting Starbucks team members wear piercings allows for the team member to express their true self and feel comfortable. Wearing hats while being a barista can be really annoying since it gets extremely hot with a hat on. Wearing hats can be even more annoying for women since they get hot quicker because of their hair. As team members we want to feel acknowledged and like a Team Member of Target. All other Team Members are allowed to wear piercings and are not required to wear hats and as Target baristas we feel left out. Yes, it is a food area but not all restaurants and cafes require the use of a hat or ban piercings. Short hair for men and a high bun for women is fair in my opinion.

Most of the employees at Cinemark are young; either in high school or college. This is a critical point in life to experiment with your appearance, but Cinemark is very conservative and allows no such thing. Many have meaningful tattoos and have to cover them up with a long sleeve shirts under their work shirt. In many cases, this makes them sweaty and tired from the extra heat, and oil and drinks splash onto the sleeves, leaving them wet. As for creative hair, more and more employers are realizing you can be professional with green or pink hair. The attitude matters, not the hair. Dress code itself is also limiting, only allowing an entirely black wardrobe down to the socks, often requiring employees to spend a decent amount of money on clothing they will only wear at work, including shoes. Freedom of expression will make employees happier and more productive at work, resulting in everyone being more satisfied all around.

Spending spurs an economy. Buying power is important in a capital based society. Walmart is behind in how it treats its employees. We are taught that Walmart is a family business and values its workers. We want this to be shown in how we are paid. Sam Walton felt it was important to treat your workers like family. We feel like his legacy should be supported in his passing. Paid sick days is important because it is impossible to expect a person to work 40+ hours a week and not get sick . We are humans and all humans should be afforded certain safety nets. Paid sick days are needed to ensure that worker health and public health is adequately cared for.

Partners at high volume locations work hard to insure the Starbucks customer experience while juggling various other tasks while still keeping drive thru times low and and beverage accuracy high. Because of having such high volumes, the job demands more both physically and mentally out of partners. On top of having more work to do in high volume stores, but we also increase company sales. Our managers at high volume locations get bonuses based on high sales and volumes that us partners create by working hard, thus it is only fair that we are compensated fairly as well since we are the ones working hard to achieve those goals.

We all love Tesla and want to see the company do well but we need to be able to take care of ourselves as well. We have been told to be scrappy while watching our wages diminish, our work load increase, and continuous promises of a better future if we push though now. This future will not come at Tesla if we do not fight for it. The company is doing exceedingly well with stocks and sales but the amount we make has decreased. Our VPS' and TA's do not make a living wage and we are fighting to breathe life into a company that is not doing the same for us. We love Tesla and our teammates. Even though it is hard to fight for ourselves let's do our best to fight for each other. Tesla will be great and make a real change in this world but only if we hold it to what is right. Please join me in signing this petition and helping Tesla become sustainable not only in our products but how we treat our people. Let's dare to do more and be more.

H&M drives business to this mall. Our customers expect better. Our employees deserve better. Our routines in store have shifted entirely because a large portion of our Back Of House is unusable due to the heat. We are simply asking for a return to normalcy.

Starbucks is a corporation that focuses on the partner experience being a great one. One of the many ways they insure this is by allowing us to express ourselves through our tattoos and hair color. But the current December 2019 piercing rule is extremely restrictive. Allowing only one facial piercing is not in line with the ethos they stand by, and quite frankly makes no sense. I myself identify heavily as somebody with many body modifications and I feel I have to hide a part of myself and my identity every day I go to work by taking out my numerous piercings. This makes me feel less confident, there for making my partner experience less great.

We've had nurses on maternity or sick leave receive no pay. We've had staff missing thousands of dollars of wages, accumulated over multiple paychecks with multiple errors, who took months to be reimbursed. Some nurses and staff are still working to correct their pay, and there are new issues each pay cycle. Managers are being obligated to fix pay versus dealing with issues on their unit. The payroll department is offsite from each hospital and have taken weeks to get back to local HR about pay problems. This situation is untenable and deserves to be spotlighted. My name is Adam P. Witt and I'm an emergency department nurse at Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune, NJ and President of HPAE Local 5058. I write this along with Anna Pona, interventional radiology and cath lab nurse at Southern Ocean Medical Center and President of HPAE Local 5138, Lorna "Mickie" Miquiabas, same day recovery nurse at Palisades Medical Center and President of HPAE Local 5030, and Sandra White, certified nurse assistant at The Harborage, and President of HPAE Local 5097. We stand with one another and will all staff throughout the hospital system on this very important issue.

If Google can't be trusted to support workers who speak out against illegal and unethical activities at the company, how can it be trusted to hold the world's information in a responsible, unbiased, and ethical way? Illegal retaliation also hurts us all in promoting homogeneous workplaces, which stifles workplace inclusivity and diversity.

Sprouts Farmers Market is unusual that it offers healthy food for relatively low cost, setting itself a part from the larger organic grocery outlets like Trader Joes and Whole Foods. What Sprouts fails at is loyalty to their lowest paid hourly staff. With the larger grocers, employees are protected by unions and practices that ensure a better working atmosphere and better hours. Sprouts Farmers Market is focused on growth. While there are opportunities for employees to take advantage of health insurance as part-time workers, very few are given the hours to pay for health benefits, much less pay their bills. There are employees that have worked for Sprouts Farmers Market for two years or more that are scheduled 8 hours a week. There is next to no assurance of hours on a weekly basis. Hourly employees are subject to hap-hazard schedules. In California cost of living is sky high. As an hourly worker at Sprouts Farmers Market it's a joke to believe that you can get enough hours to live on or pay your bills because of hours are unpredictable week to week. Sprouts Farmers Market experiences very high turnover. Employees quit their jobs because they do not feel valued. This feeling of being undervalued stretches across pay scales and allocated hours. Sprouts Farmers Market is one of the very best of the best for its customers, and one of the very worst work environments, with morale that's consistently low. This must change. Sprouts Farmers Market averages a 2.9 rating out of 5 via Glassdoor. Most of the company reviews center around communication of executive staff, scattered scheduling and poor wages.

Unfair treatment and a hostile work environment has created stress and anxiety for many employees

Anonymous testimony from WeWork employees in the UK points to an unhealthy and unproductive long hours culture. Employees describe having no work life balance, with work days of 14 hours or more regularly bookended with mandatory out of hours events. Workers should be consulted on when they work, for how long and how many out of hours events they need to attend. This would improve employees’ work-life balance and help to enable a happier and more productive workforce – good news for WeWork and those who work for it. We are calling for WeWork to listen to its employees and end its culture of long hours.
