'A call to arms for workers at the whim of apps, bad bosses and zero-hours contracts' - i-D Magazine

'…a beginner’s guide to the value of collective campaigning in the workplace, Make Bosses Pay makes a compelling argument that may motivate an otherwise demoralised labour force' - New Statesman

Governments constantly attack unions, CEOs devote endless resources to undermining them, and some unions seem stuck in the past. Despite this, inspiring work is happening all the time, from fast food strikes and climate change campaigning to the modernisation of unions for the digital age.

In Make Bosses Pay, award-winning journalist Eve Livingston speaks with these grassroots organisers as well as frontline union reps from TUC, IWGB, ACORN and more, offering up a smart, sharp, and unapologetically radical guide for young people in the workplace.

Perfect for:
- Burnt-out gig workers
- Activist-minded students
- First-time employees
- Anyone who's ever been underpaid or undervalued
- Future changemakers ready to fight back

From climate action to digital activism, Make Bosses Pay demonstrates how young people are reshaping the labour movement from the inside out. Livingston shows how your rights shouldn’t be optional and how unions can fight for your pay, your schedule, your future.

Your workplace is political. You just might not realise it yet.
Yes, you need a union—but more importantly, your union needs you.
Grab your copy now and start building the future of work.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal

Statutory right to withdraw

You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

Effects of withdrawal

If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.

We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Mooney's bookstore, Den Helder, Netherlands, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:

The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
