- Target Workers Unite recently released a survey of more than 500 Target workers around the US, representing 382 different stores in 44 states. Only 12.7% of the workers who responded said they could survive on the wages from Target alone, with 56% of workers citing they have ran out of food while employed at Target, and 12.8% of workers reported experiencing homelessness.
The survey also provides some insight into Target’s opposition to workers organizing. Some 54% of workers surveyed report management telling them not to discuss wages with other workers and 41.6% of workers report workers have been reprimanded by management for discussing workplace issues in the store or on social media.
Fuuuuuuck that. Both my previous and current job had most of the company payscales known to everyone. Shit my current one you can even find online without being a staff member - It'll have to do with both roles being government funded though, need transparency etc. Having said that, they're still actively trying to fuck people over here - I need to join the union.Some 54% of workers surveyed report management telling them not to discuss wages with other workers
