Question about project 2025
How will affect workers?
Answer
It's proposed that corporations would be enabled to reduce or eliminate overtime pay, weaken child labor protections, allow discrimination in workplaces, and potentially change how economic data is collected and used. The government's ability to monitor working conditions or intervene when problems are found could be compromised if vital government data collection offices such as the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which is essential for worker safety, compensation and labor-related data collection, were forced to consolidate. Workers will likely have to work more for less pay, with potentially more workplace accidents.
