En una corporación grande, la trabajadora peor pagada gana 344 veces menos que la trabajadora mejor pagada de esa misma empresa. 😾 Comparamos esta cifra a las cooperativas de trabajadores donde la proporción de pago más alto a más bajo es solo 1.45 a 1. Cuando la empresa es propiedad colectiva de las trabajadoras, tienen el poder de definir sus propios salarios y crear un lugar de trabajo más equitativo. Puedes encontrar más datos sobre las #CooperativasDeTrabajo en nuestro Estado del Sector de 2023 - descarga el reporte en https://lnkd.in/g_pvufHy

The lowest paid worker at a typical U.S. corporation makes 344 times less than the highest paid worker at that same company. 😾 In worker cooperatives, the average ratio of highest to lowest paid worker is only 1.45 to 1. When workers co-own the business, they have the power to create an equitable workplace instead of profit hoarding.

REI calls itself a cooperative, but it doesn’t behave like one. The company fights against its union workers and refuses to accept feedback from members who want to change things. Thousands of REI members nationwide are fed up with the way things are going, so they’re coming together to end this corporate takeover. If you’re a member, visit votenoREI.com to lend your voice and help turn things around at your cooperative! Shemona Moreno, REI union member and Board candidate (until the current REI Board disqualified them from the ballot) writes "REI should be leading the way with socially and environmentally ethical and sustainable practices, not blocking progress by union-busting and silencing the voices of its own employees. This is not the REI I know and love, so I’m running for the people in green vests who make REI great but who are not allowed a voice on the co-op’s board of directors. REI co-op members can help bring REI back to its roots by supporting board candidates who pledge to ensure the company walks their talk on sustainability and worker rights." 📲 VotenoREI.com https://lnkd.in/gb3FhvrU
