How Enhancing the Lives of Hourly Workers Benefits Us All
While the vast majority of business books focus on the white-collar, salaried workforce,
Hourly
shines a light on the often-overlooked majority of the US workforce: the “invisible” hourly workers. Through research, firsthand experience, and contributions from industry experts, author AJ Richichi makes the case that businesses must work against outdated processes and introduce innovations that benefit workers’ lives, employers’ bottom lines, and the economy as a whole.
Richichi takes readers on an eye-opening journey with insights into the challenges facing the hourly workforce and how we can drive positive change that would ripple throughout society. He also shows that progress is being made, even though it might not seem like it, by sharing real-world examples of major companies that have achieved success by instituting perks and policies that support their employees in new ways. However, Richichi calls upon us all to come together and accelerate this progress if we really want to reach the ideal future of work. It begins simply by shifting our mindsets and seeing these critical hourly workers for how important they truly are.
