About the Philadelphia Officers and Workers Rising Campaign (P.O.W.R.)



Philadelphia Jobs With Justice and POWR:

Workers, community, faith, and students; Together were building POWR
for workers in our city

The Philadelphia Officer and Workers Rising (POWR) campaign is a joint
project of Jobs with Justice and the Philadelphia Security Officer
Union. The POWR campaign aims to reform the private security industry
in the Philadelphia area.

building a movement for workers' rights and social and economic
justice on the principles of solidarity, reciprocity, militancy and
action.

A voice on the job
Respect and human rights in our work lives
Family sustaining wages across the board
Scheduled work assessments and pay increases
Affordable, quality health care
