Vision, Mission and
Goals
Vision:
We envision the faith community serving as a
prophetic voice and spiritual advocate that is aware of
the plight of workers, especially low-wage workers,
and those victimized by social injustice.

Mission:
SFIWJ's mission is to involve the faith community in
issues that will improve the wages, benefits, and
employment conditions of the workers, especially the
low-wage workers of South Florida.

Values Statement:
* Work is a blessing and a responsibility, an expression of our faith

* Work gives meaning to life and the means by which to enjoy life

* Workers are not tools or machines, but have divine worth

* People are not to be exploited or abused

* All workers whether engaged in intellectual or manual labor, are
to be respected.

* Employers and workers can expect from each other personal
responsibility and
quality of work.

Goals:
* Advocate for a just system of management labor relations

* Promote a moral conscience regarding issues of employment

* Encourage employers to respect workers’ right to organize,
unionize and negotiate
contracts in good faith

* Educate the faith community on the rights of workers to obtain a
living wage and
decent employment conditions

employers
