Know Your Rights: Gender-Responsive Fast Food Worker Education and Empowerment

Fast food workers in Los Angeles County, predominantly women, immigrants, and workers of color, face widespread workplace abuses and unsafe working conditions. Building on a successful City of Los Angeles pilot, SEIU Education and Support Fund (ESF) will expand gender-responsive Know Your Rights trainings countywide. The project will deliver multilingual, trauma-informed education, develop worker leaders, and strengthen pathways to enforcement, improving workplace culture and compliance for women across the fast food industry.
