Work is rapidly changing
Workers across virtually all sectors of the economy are facing work reorganization, new technology, and the intensification of work.

Long-term, stable jobs are disappearing as work has become more temporary, part-time, and contingent.

How are Massachusetts workers fighting to hold onto dignity and pride at work to build job and income security, and have a say in their future?
