An awardwinning sociologist reveals the unexpected link between overwork and inequality.Most Americans work too long and too hard, while others lack consistency in their hours and schedules. Work hours declined for a century through hardfought labormovement victories, but they've increased significantly since the seventies. Worked Over traces the varied reasons why our lives became tethered to a new rhythm of work, and describes how we might gain a greater say over our labor time and build a more just society in the process.Popular discussions typically focus on overworked professionals. But as Jamie K. McCallum demonstrates, from Amazon warehouses to Rust Belt factories to California's gig economy, it's the hours of lowwage workers that are the most volatile and precarious and the most subject to crises. What's needed is not individual solutions but collective struggle, and throughout Worked Over McCallum recounts the inspiring stories of those battling today's capitalism to win back control of their time.
