Best States to Work Index 2023: Policy recommendations
The 2023 edition of the BSWI underscores the need for stronger federal policies on wages, worker protections, and rights to organize.
No policy tracked in the Best States to Work Index (BSWI) has an adequate federal mandate, so all offer opportunities for federal and state governments to strengthen policies on wages, worker protections, and rights to organize. No state has a perfect score on the index; even states scoring well have room for improvement.
