Our Mission

Turkopticon’s mission is to organize data workers to build collective power, improve working conditions, and hold platforms, companies, and institutions accountable to the labor they rely on.

Vision

We envision Turkopticon as a worker-led hub where data workers can find support, build power, and negotiate better working conditions.

Our Values

Worker-Led: Our Organization is led by data workers, ensuring our advocacy, resources, and support reflect the real and current conditions workers face.

Inclusive: We provide assistance, resources, and advocacy to all data workers without discrimination and with respect for each worker’s human worth.

Collective Power: We believe data workers are stronger together. We build connections across platforms, borders, and experiences to support one another.

Horizontal Structure: We are committed to a structure where leadership is shared, voices are valued, and decisions are made with transparency and care.
