We educate workers about labor rights, teach folks how to enforce their rights, organize in the workplace and community and fight for public and private false false 1032549 WWJ has supported workers organizing for safer workplaces, higher pay, an end to sexual harassment, and respect on the job. WWJC held ongoing beginning and advanced training programs on: Health and Safety Organizing to enforce Workplace Rights Your Legal Rights in the Workplace Stopping Sexual Harrassment Criminal Background Checks: Know Your Rights Communicating our Story to the Public Understanding the Global Supply Chain Since 2009 WWJ has won: Over $2 million in recovered stolen wages Warehouse employers and temp agencies use a range of schemes to cheat workers out of their pay. WWJ takes action to fight abuses such as missing hours, short checks, illegal paycheck deductions and fees, unpaid showup pay, payroll card abuses, unpaid overtime, payroll card abuses and more. Over $10 million in wage increases When WWJ opened its doors, warehouse wages averaged $9/hour. Through protests, strikes, petitions, community delegations, public outcry and organizing, WWJ has successfully raised wages in key facilities in the Chicago distribution hub. While some wage rates are still below the $15/h workers deserve, these improvements show that when workers organize, things get better. Paid sick days for temp workers. When warehouse workers get sick or need to care for an ill loved one, they are often punished. For temp workers, paid time off is unheard of. But with support from WWJ, temp workers in the import supply chain of a major retailer united their coworkers and forced their employer to offer paid sick days. An end to the piece rate system in large retail distribution centersWhen WWJ began operation in 2009, warehouse operators commonly paid workers using a piecerate system. This scheme, often called production pay, involved paying a team of two workers a set amount for unloading a shipping container. Over time, this rate was lowered to the point where a workers pay was often less than minimum wage. In addition, workers were not paid time between unloading containers. Through legal tactics and organizing, WWJ successfully eliminated this practice in the largest warehouses in the Chicago distribution hub. Reinstatement of dozens of workers unjustly fired Most warehouse workers have little job security. But WWJ has worked to win reinstatement for workers who are unfairly fired. We have successfully won jobs back for workers fired for retaliation for speaking up about sexual harassment or safety abuses, as well as workers fired discriminatorily or in retaliation for exercising their right to organize. WWJ assists workers in asserting their legal rights to seek justice when fired unjustly.? Safety improvements in large retail distribution centers Workers shouldnt have to risk death or serious injury so that retailers can continue to make money. Unfortunately, warehouse work is still among the most dangerous jobs in the US. WWJ has won many safety improvements in Chicago area warehouses, including replaces storage racks, new dock plates, heating and cooling systems, better safety equipment, enhanced training and more. In addition, WWJ works closely with OSHA officials to ensure legal compliance in area warehouses. 1032549 true false false false false false false false false false true false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 0 0 13 true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false X 5 5 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true false false false false false false IL X Marcos Ceniceros 8154081231 1901 W Carroll Avenue Chicago IL 60612 Marcos Ceniceros Executive Director 40.00 0.00 X X 84575 0 0 Alex Han Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Armando Robles Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Trina Tocco Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Carl Rosen Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Mark Meinster President 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 84575 0 0 0 false false false 1490879 1490879 0 Other Income 541900 6098 6098 6098 1496977 6098 0 0 X 641044 512835 96157 32052 66064 52851 9911 3302 62954 50363 9443 3148 23000 23000 73935 73935 379914 278079 85804 16031 667 667 59641 35785 23856 14 7 7 70129 48984 17738 3407 27768 21189 6579 3610 2527 902 181 8280 6387 1479 414 Taxes 809 809 Dues & Subscriptions 28916 14458 14458 Meetings & events 12660 7596 1899 3165 Training & Professional 10 5 5 5897 1483 3668 746 1465312 1032549 369650 63113 308951 98048 133548 215477 1300 1300 20467 11044 4541 9423 32444 480784 324248 796 34200 499890 507388 10721 500686 552309 X -19902 -228061 -19902 -228061 480784 324248 31665 -239824 0 X false true X true false X 731107 1061720 1236375 1125891 1490879 5645972 731107 1061720 1236375 1125891 1490879 5645972 5645972 5645972 1.00000 0.00000 X 20467 11044 9423 9423 401k expense 10817 Action Builder Toolset -96 10721 Form 990 governing body review Part VI line 11 NO REVIEW WAS OR WILL BE CONDUCTED Governing documents etc available to public Part VI line 19 Disclosureofgoverningdocuments,policies,andfinancialstatementsaremadeavailabletothegeneralpublicuponwritten request.
