RISING MIDDLE CLASS:
The
AGE AND WAGE™
Initiative
Wage Inequality and Ageism are born out of unequal distribution of income and discrimination. Consequently, the disruption caused by this inadequacy leads to worker disengagement and (in some instances) a feeling of dehumanization. The outcomes on the overall health of the United States of America’s citizens are showing up at tipping points and in both corporate and government process and policies. America is at a crossroads today.
An initiative to foster new and creative ideas so citizens can take charge within the workforce and implement positive change.
RISING MIDDLE CLASS
Creating Positive Change, Making a Difference.
Wage Inequality
Every year the U.S. government tells us about the annual wage increase (a 2.9% rate in 2018) but if inflation comes in at 1.9% (as was the case in 2018) what are you left with? This is before paying taxes! While everything else goes up in cost, salaries have not. As a result, the middle class barely exists.
Unfair Practices
To keep employees in place, wage suppression tactics have become common among many companies, including major corporations for a long time. Tactics has been masked as company non-competes and corporate talent acquisition write job descriptions in language to dissuade groups of people from applying.
Ageism
It’s called ageism and it can affect anyone and everyone, which is why I believe that it is the worst and most prevalent type of discrimination. Ageism doesn’t care about your gender, your ethnicity or your physical appearance. It is bred out of sheer bias toward having gained experience and lived to middle age.
"Ageism and Wage Inequality are both at epidemic levels. We’ve not seen this kind of disparity in our country in modern times. Companies have done wrong by the employees for decades. Corporate leaders must stand up and challenge the blatant disparity that effects the majority of employees in America by implementing real solutions that benefits everyone, not just a few.
Until there is real compensation growth with career structure and stability, people will not be able to meet the ever growing demands of economic living. Former presidents created The American Dream for our country’s people that with hard work all Americans can achieve their dreams.
Ageism and Wage Inequality were NOT part of their vision.
We can have the dream back."
