Description
From the Stated Meeting of Philadelphia City Council held Thursday, February 16, 2023:
Councilmember Qustcy Lozada (7th District) speaks on the workplace concerns of the Please Touch Museum staff.
B
Benefits
to
sustain
a
career
at
the
Museum,
they
love
transparent,
a
transparent
process
of
onboarding
scheduling,
training
and
promotion,
a
safe,
inclusive,
workplace,
free
of
discrimination
and
harassment
and
systems
of
accountability.
When
discrimination
harassment
occur
a
say
in
in
the
policies
that
affect
them.
The
most
I'm
told
that
in
early
conversations
that
early
conversations
were
cordial
but
that
the
organization's
leadership
is
now
engaging
in
the
same
union.
B
Busting
tactics
seen
in
other
instances
where
Union
is
not
voluntarily
recognized
a
super
majority
of
Staff
Express
intent
to
or
to
unionize
putting
their
jobs
on
the
line
to
fight
for
their
rights
and
to
grow
the
institution
as
a
whole.
That
is
a
powerful
indicator
that
the
union
will
form
soon
or
after
a
drawn
out
process
that
will
weigh
heavily
on
all
involved.
B
I
call
on
the
museum
to
voluntarily
recognize
this
Union
or
at
minimum
to
not
obstruct
the
union
vote
so
that
everyone
can
make
the
best
use
of
that
money
and
focus
on
supporting
the
growth
of
the
children
of
Philadelphia,
the
state
and
the
con.
The
country
I
will
post
more
information
about
this
on
my
social
media
and
invite
my
colleagues
to
join
me
in
supporting
the
workers
of
the
police
Touch
Museum.
Thank
you.
Councilman
