Abstract

[Excerpt] Workplace discrimination, harassment, and gender violence continue to be issues of concern to workers in New York State and across U.S. workplaces. This brief presents analysis of results of the 2024 Empire State Poll concerning rates of racial discrimination and sexual harassment in the workplace, as well as experiences of intimate partner violence and their impacts at work. The brief also discusses how people respond to such situations, with a particular focus on what actions union members have taken. While rates of unionization have been falling throughout the United States, New York State remains one of the most unionized workforces across the country, with 20.6% of New Yorkers belonging to a labor union as of 2024, second only to Hawaii.
