The magazine promoted labor rights in the context of office work. The present leaflet discusses "Office Workers' Olympics," a protest event organized by the 10,000-member Working Women union of San Francisco, examining similar contemporary office-worker unionization efforts as well. "The strategic leverage of office workers, if organized and coordinated, can be used to counter the pressures of office 'rationalization.' [...] The solutions to the crises of modern society can only be discovered by the vast majority of us, taking action to remedy problems and meet our needs directly, overcoming the barriers presented by existing institutions, leaders, and beliefs."
