The move comes as labor tensions for big tech companies grow.
A group of YouTube contractors in Texas plans to strike later today in protest of rules requiring such workers — even those who have always worked remotely — to report to the office. The workers plan to walk out this morning, with a press conference set for noon, Axios has learned.The move comes amid increased labor tensions at large tech companies, including Google, which owns YouTube.
The vast majority of the contractors were hired during the pandemic — and have always worked remotely. Nearly a quarter of them live somewhere other than Austin. In particular, workers have called attention to the so-called "shadow workforce" that includes temporary workers, vendors and contractors who receive lower pay and few of the benefits afforded full-time workers.
As a minority union, the Alphabet Workers Union can't collectively bargain on behalf of workers or officially represent employees.
