Английская Википедия:Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee
The Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee (EWOC) is a joint project between the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and the United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America (UE).[1]
EWOC began in March 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic.[2] At the beginning of EWOC's inception, the organization assisted workers organizing around COVID-19 workplace protections, including vaccine access and masking.[3] Since then, EWOC has continued to grow. As of June 2023, EWOC was actively involved in 186 campaigns.[4]
EWOC volunteers have assisted workers at various workplaces across the country, including Barboncino, a Crown Heights pizzeria.[5] In July 2023, workers at Barboncino successfully voted to unionize with Workers United, becoming the first unionized pizzeria in New York City.[6] EWOC has assisted organize workers in industries that have been neglected by the labor movement, including board game cafe workers in Chicago[7] and Chipotle employees in Kansas.[8]
