The Change We Need Starts Here.

The time for change is now, and it will take each and every one of us to make a difference;
Join the cause, share your story, and contribute to change.

This confidential survey is the foundation of the Purple Plague initiative. We are an anonymous employee group dedicated to collecting documented, honest, and fact-based experiences. Your submission is strictly confidential and is aggregated solely for the purpose of advocacy. This information will only be shared with external regulatory bodies and authoritative channels to enforce workplace standards and compel systemic change. Please select the issues you have experienced and share your story with confidence.

This survey is an example of Protected Concerted Activity under Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). This means employees have a federally protected right to discuss, distribute, or participate in this survey for mutual aid and protection regarding working conditions.

Retaliation by management for engaging in this protected activity, including suppressing the survey, threatening or retaliating against participants may be considered an Unfair Labor Practice (ULP) and a violation of federal law. Your submissions, stories, and any provided information will never be distributed, nor your information shared with anyone besides The Purple Plague team and governmental regulatory bodies (such as the NLRB or OSHA.)

At the FedEx Hagerstown Hub, employees frequently deal with serious issues ranging from retaliation, harassment, and ignored complaints to systemic problems like chronic understaffing that forces excessive overtime and causes unstable schedules. We face immediate safety concerns from unsafe equipment, intense safety pressure, and accidents, often worsened by poorly maintained facilities, lack of essential safety gear, and extreme temperatures.
