Giving Money Away - A Good Idea
I was reading this article, which touches on the (un)fairness of pursuing the American Dream. Specifically, it notes that inequality is widening, the social safety net is increasingly compromised, and one bad stroke of luck (car repairs, health issues, family needs) can undo all progress.
Which makes me wonder: Are you worker friendly?
Do you pay a fair wage for the work and hours expected? Do you have adequate family and medical leave policies? Can you provide rides – or short-term loans – to employees who are facing extraordinary need? What else can you do to support your workers as they struggle to survive?
