1980

9to5 Georgia was founded in 1980 when a group of office workers in Atlanta organized to improve working conditions. In Georgia, 9to5 has led campaigns to win living wages, family medical leave, improved access to unemployment insurance, and measures to combat discrimination.

TODAY

9to5 continues to fight for worker justice and family and community sustainability and is building power in our communities. We have active voter engagement, paid leave, utility justice, climate justice, childcare, anti-discrimination, and anti-harassment campaigns throughout the state of Georgia. Our members span from the Metro Atlanta area to Southwest and Central Georgia, and Savannah, Georgia.
