STAND WITH US FOR JUSTICE

Stand for the rights of working people to a decent standard of living, to organize, and to bargain collectively.
Fighting for living wage jobs, opposing corporate attacks on people and communities.
Setting standards that ensure healthy communities for everyone.

Our Mission

The Eugene-Springfield Solidarity Network/Jobs with Justice brings together labor unions, religious congregations, and community organizations to support the civil and economic rights of all working people - especially the right to a decent standard of living, the right to a stable job, and the right to organize. We divide our work between building broad-based community support for worker issues, and establishing community standards that promote good jobs. ESSN/JwJ works to create longterm strategic alliances, develop the leadership of working class people and their allies, and build power for workers and their com-munities.

Lane County Workers' Rights Board

The Eugene/Springfield Solidarity Network/Jobs with Justice has formed the Lane County Workers' Rights Board. A project of Jobs with Justice the Workers' Rights Board serves to bring community awareness to the struggles of workers seeking justice. We join more than 20 such boards throughout the country including a National Workers' Rights Board. The Lane County board is comprised of community leaders who are committed to protecting the rights of workers. These dedicated individuals have agreed to investigate allegations of injustice in the workplace, deliberate on issues of concern to workers, and use their influence and standing in the community to advocate for a fair resolution.
