Current Expectations of Collective Members
The following statements are the expectations for a member of the Free Geek collective. These expectations have been agreed upon by the collective.
Further expectations are being talked about pending approval or denial. To contribute go to the discussion page
As we discuss and agree upon other expectations we can add them to this list.
- One definition of a living wage is twice the amount of the current legal minimum wage. (In 2009 minimum wage in Oregon will be $8.40, twice that is $16.80, and we currently make $11.55.) This definition of a living wage will be used as one (long term) goal for staff compensation.
- Salaries of all collective members are calculated using the same hourly rate.
- We will strive to hire and allocate work so that no one needs to work more hours on average than they are paid for.
- All collective workers are required to have a job description.
- All collective workers are required to set goals.
- All collective workers are required to report all the hours that they work.
- We, as the Collective, strive to give workers a flexible schedule.
