Why the Digital Rights Community is Witnessing a Health Crisis
The COVID crisis led millions of people to reflect on their working conditions; many of us acknowledged the physical and mental demands of a workplace. We also witnessed how little companies cared about the emotional stability of their employers, such as in the case of “essential workers” who cleaned our spaces and brought our groceries.
The digital rights field, formed mostly by people working remotely, suffered severe burnout, as many of us were unable to slow down or pause activities. In some cases, organizations were acting as if nothing was happening outside of our screens and conducting business as usual.
This experience lead us to research and suggest these main recommendations. Please review them here!
