N2 - Almost thirty years ago, CSCW published an article written by Joan Greenbaum detailing how and why CSCW should consider the framing of "labor"over "work"in researching and designing information systems [17]. This argument is especially salient in the present day, with the increasing wariness of algorithmically-mediated monitoring, surveillance, automation, and management in work processes. Despite its salience, Greenbaum's paper has had relatively low engagement in CSCW so far. As such, this workshop responds to Greenbaum's call-to-action, asking: 1) Where is CSCW research now in thinking about "work"vs. "labor"in designing systems? and 2) How can we support emerging CSCW scholars in grounding themselves in theories of work that includes - if not centers - a labor-oriented economic frame? Following a Freirean pedagogy model of social action involving a cycle of reflection and action, this workshop will aim to generate a critical consciousness around labor issues in CSCW. Ultimately, by crafting individual commitments to labor, this workshop will aim to contribute to a more worker-centered future.
