Interfaith Worker Justice

Interfaith Worker Justice – Central Kansas as an official project of GFIA. We believe in there is a need for awareness and action regarding worker justice issues and are proud to be working with our local IWJ chapter.

IWJ envisions a nation where all workers enjoy the rights to:

• Wages, health care, and pensions that allow workers to raise families and retire with dignity;
• Safe working conditions;
• Organize and bargain collectively to improve wages, benefits, and conditions without harassment, intimidation, or retaliation;
• Equal protection under labor law - regardless of immigration status – and an end to the practice of pitting immigrant and U.S.-born workers against one another;
• Fair and just participation in a global economy that promotes the welfare of both domestic and foreign workers.

In addition to enjoying these rights, IWJ also believes workers are responsible to:

• Be in solidarity with other workers in the pursuit of workplace justice; and
• Live in harmony with people around the world.
