Beverly Hills retail jobs may look polished, but many workers face unsafe conditions, denied breaks, and wage theft. California law provides strong protections, yet enforcement gaps remain. Workers who document violations and take action are in the strongest position. #LaborRights #CalOSHA #EmploymentLaw

If employees really continued working around a corpse, then the issue is larger than one shocking moment. It becomes a question about dignity, trauma, and how institutional logic overrides human instinct.

I need sometimes to travel abroad. I try to reduce in-person presence at international conferences but as a scientists, I cannot avoid them entirely.

Yes, I can reduce the environmental impacts by avoiding air travel. But I am also worried about the working conditions in the hotel during my stay.

For such reasons, and for everyone who travels, here are lists of hotels that respect their workers' rights:

USA & Canada: https://www.fairhotel.org/
Denmark: http://okforhold.dk/
Norway: https://www.fellesforbundet.no/en/
Sweden: https://www.schystavillkor.se/
Spain: https://fairhotels.es/?page_id=2

(If you know of other lists or countries to facilitate responsible travels, please comment below!)

Power to the Unions!

The Gospel of the Bottom Line

I’ve been walking the blocks of Chicago lately, from the glass canyons of the Loop to the bungalows of Canaryville, and I’m hearing a new kind of silence.  It’s the silence of a machine, specifically, those Waymo rigs now prowling our streets, cameras spinning like the eyes of a mechanical spider.  They call it "testing."

Italy Implements a New Labor Leave that Allows Workers to Care for #SickPets

#Italy has taken a historic step in #LaborRights and #AnimalWelfare by approving a special leave that allows workers to take time off to care for their sick pets. With this measure, the country became the first in the world to legally recognize that caring for a domestic animal can justify an authorized absence and, in some cases, a paid one.

«How the Climate Crisis Impacts Workers and Migrants» webinar recording.

> The past decade has witnessed an unprecedented rise in global temperatures, with each year setting new records as the warmest. This increase—driven by human-induced climate change—results in more frequent and intense droughts, floods, erratic weather patterns, and natural disasters. These slow- and sudden-onset weather events make working conditions in already precarious labour sectors, such as agriculture, fishing, or garment production, unbearable. They also destroy many people’s homes and livelihoods, forcing them to undertake risky migrations or accept exploitative jobs, thereby increasing their vulnerability to exploitation and human trafficking. To unpack some of these dynamics, the Global Alliance Against Traffic in Women organised a webinar to analyse how the worsening climate crisis is impacting workers and migrants. Speakers discussed changing working conditions in countries across Asia, Africa, and the Americas, the strategies that communities are implementing to resist resource extraction and exploitation, and what steps workers are taking to protect their rights and improve their working conditions.

> The conversation was inspired by the latest issue of the journal Anti-Trafficking Review on this topic: https://antitraffickingreview.org/index.php/atrjournal/issue/view/36
