Worker-led Organizing
Come Work With Us
At Brandworkers, we believe that marginalized workers are uniquely positioned to change their workplaces through solidarity, direct action, and worker-led unionism. That’s why we’re working to build an organization of food manufacturing workers in New York City with the power to transform our society. We’re building a dynamic and passionate team here, and we’d like you to join us!
Our Vision
“With Brandworkers I’m learning how to organize to build a union in my workplace and how to speak with my coworkers. We’re struggling to have a better life than what we have now. I’d like to learn how to support people that are facing abusive working conditions. Even at other workplaces.”
