Petition Summary: This petition urges companies like Dell, Amazon, and Wells Fargo to reconsider their harmful Return-to-Office (RTO) policies, which disproportionately affect disabled employees, veterans, and those with mental health conditions. These policies force vulnerable workers to choose between their health and their jobs, often pushing them into financial instability, homelessness, or worse. We call on these companies to adopt fair, inclusive policies that consider the needs of all workers.

Why this is important: RTO policies are having a devastating impact on disabled people, disabled veterans, those dealing with mental health conditions, and even customers. These mandates benefit no one but billionaires, forcing workers to choose between their health and their jobs while companies fail to provide reasonable accommodations. It's as if these companies are chasing profits at any cost, much like addicts chasing their next fix—focused on short-term gains while ignoring the long-term harm they're causing to workers and society.

Disabled workers, who thrived under remote work, are now being pushed out of the workforce, leading to serious consequences like homelessness, economic instability, and worsening mental health. Customers also suffer as corporations cut corners, reducing the quality of service and support in favor of maximizing profits.

This isn’t just a failure of one company—it’s a systemic issue across many corporations that prioritize profits over people. It’s time to raise awareness and demand change before more workers and customers are left behind.

We demand that:

• End Unfair RTO Mandates: Companies like Dell must stop forcing employees back into the office when remote work is a viable option, especially for disabled employees, disabled veterans, or those with health conditions. Additionally, ensure that customers, including disabled individuals, are properly supported and not negatively impacted by cost-cutting measures disguised as service.
• Implement Inclusive Employment and Customer Practices: Ensure that reasonable accommodations are provided to disabled employees, disabled veterans, and disabled customers. This includes flexible work options for employees and accessible customer services, ensuring everyone is treated with respect and dignity.
• Investigate Corporate Labor and Customer Service Practices: We call on state and federal authorities to investigate how companies are using RTO policies and automation to cut costs at the expense of their most vulnerable employees and customers. Disabled workers and disabled customers deserve better protections, and companies must be held accountable for their actions.

How RTO Policies Hurt Us All: Companies like Dell, Amazon, and Wells Fargo, under the leadership of CEOs like Michael Dell, Andy Jassy, and Charles W. Scharf, are rolling back the remote work policies that helped countless employees stay employed during the pandemic. These changes are devastating for those of us who need accommodations—whether physical, mental, or emotional. The focus isn’t on improving productivity; it’s about cutting costs, reducing severance payments, and driving wages down by forcing people to either quit or be replaced by AI. It’s all about short-term profits for billionaires, leaving workers and customers to pay the real price.
