WHO WE ARE

Warehouse Workers for Justice fights for good, stable, living wage jobs in Chicago's massive logistics and transportation industry. We educate workers on their rights, help workers enforce their rights, and fight for public and private policies that promote full-time work with respect and fair wages in our region's warehouses and distribution centers.

​we come together to use it.

​jobs in the industry

WIN

When our members stand
together and exercise their
right to organize, we win
​incredible victories

PACKAGING PAIN

New Report Details Workplace Injuries at Amazon’s Monee, IL Fulfillment Center and Across Amazon’s Empire
​
Our new report lays out the human cost of Amazon's fulfillment network. Behind the turnstiles of Amazon’s fulfillment centers, delivery stations and other warehousing operations, tens of thousands of workers are paying for the cost of free two-day shipping with their bodies. 

Athena For All

WWJ is excited to announce the formation of Athena, a new alliance of over 40 organizations who believe that control over our lives, our communities, and our democracy should be in our hands. We are joining together to stop Amazon’s growing, powerful grip over our society and economy. We’re going to write new rules so that our economy puts people first, our public officials ensure that no corporation is above the law or too big to govern — and that our democracy, finally, represents all of us.

Victory for Temp Workers! HB 690 passes!

HB 690 bans charges for drug testing and background checks, mandates return transportation from job sites, requires that temp agencies act to place workers in direct hire jobs and requires temp agencies to report statistics on the race and gender of employees they hire
