Rebellious Employee Coordinator (Colorado)

WorkFour Colorado is building the movement for a 32-hour workweek in our colorful state. We've discovered that some companies have implemented a 32-hour workweek, because one of their employees used their PTO every Friday for a month and saw the benefits. We need you to persuade other employees to do the same.

💡 What You’ll Do

• Conduct research on companies that implemented a 32-hour workweek because one of their employees used their PTO every Friday. Contact those employees for advice.
• Come up with a plan to make sure the employees will not get fired (i.e. record conversations with your boss, study labor rights within the state, etc.)
• Work within your "W4 Rebellious Employee Committee" to brainstorm ideas/share the workload

Draft outreach messages and proposals:

• Instead of contacting individual employees, try reaching out to community groups and host a PowerPoint presentation/brochure at their meetings
• Try reaching out to mutual aid groups, local political parties, fraternity orgs, etc.
• Invite guests (either in-person or on Zoom) who strategically used their PTO
• Take photos while at the event and send them to the "Social Media Management Committee"
• Collect quantitative data
• Note: we are currently trying to recruit a lawyer to help protect the rights of the employees, in case they are fired without cause. If you can find a labor rights lawyer yourself, that would be awesome!

⏰ Time Commitment

• 2–5 hours/week (flexible)
