Idea Submission for The People's Money:
Creating more opportunities and support for setting up small business greater education about workers’ rights; utilizing virtual and tech resources for outreach and training; ensuring accessibility for language; disabilities etc. Targeting underserved communities, e.g. LGBTQIA, ELL Learners, older adults, differently able people.
What is the problem your idea aims to address?
Companies are reducing workforce size, they do not “take care" of employees like before. NYS is an “at will” state and so workers rights, union etc. need protection and people/workers need to be educated about their rights. Unemployment among young people and older people is too high.
