AJ Richichi

Summary

Hourlyshines a spotlight on the often-overlooked majority of the US workforce: The Hourly employees who keep our economy running yet feel invisible.Businesses don’t just need A-players at their corporate offices; they need them on the front lines, interacting with customers and representing their brand. However, those who occupy these types of positions don’t often get the respect they deserve.In Hourly, author AJ Richichi shares eye-opening insights into the challenges these “invisible” workers face on a daily basis as a result of large-scale issues that have gone unaddressed for years. Through research and firsthand experience, Richichi discusses why it seems so difficult to find solutions but shows that change is possible, providing practical ways for companies to support their hourly workers.The book includes real-world examples of brands successfully empowering hourly staff through measures like stock grants, tuition support, and workplace perks. Readers can review these perks and resulting impacts to drive change within their own organization.Hourly proves that we can achieve a brighter future for employers, workers, and the economy as a whole. However, we must first open our eyes to “see” the invisible workers and understand how important they truly are in society.
