Most development projects center around filling a small niche and monetizing that efficiency, this is not one of those projects. Unify Labor is a small team of seasoned developers tasked to release an open-sourced code base providing union rights worldwide. Corporations have been attacking union protections for decades and it's goal to turn that tide.

A Universal Problem
The sharp decrease in labor representation has lead to a staggering decline in inflation adjusted wages and employee benefits. If labor relations are viewed as a power struggle, ownership has certainly been taking a victory lap. While worker productivity has boomed, the pre-existing correlation between productivity and wage rate has completely decoupled. Corporations have used legislation and lobbying to attack hard earned equity and every American worker has been left to deal with those effects.

A Thoughtful Solution
We've deconstructed the elements labor unions utilize to provide value and our goal is to use technology to supply those rights in a secure, immutable fashion. The ability to collectively bargain, track management satisfaction, and discuss potential recourse are crucial aspects to workers that are protected by our constitutional rights. We're aiming to bring those elements of work back into the mainstream.

A Methodical Approach
After months of internal debate we have constructed a framework that will make this somewhat complicated project very feasible. While we do need to step through the process of ensuring it's legality and scalability, we can offer a interested visitors a guarantee of our priorities. The Unify Labor Project Beta will be released as an open-source solution provided to the public at no cost. All subsequent releases from our or any team, will adhere to that license and any means of potential monetization must be opt-in and optional. If you'd like a rough sketch of our approach, be sure to check out our technical details.
