"The pointlessness of it all is especially despicable when you understand that #spacetourism is funded with the hoarded wealth of billions of #workers who are struggling to survive here on #Earth The space tourism industry will be built with the profits off supply chains that work people to death-by-exhaustion, literally enslave people, and are rapidly destroying the future habitability of our planet."

@mastodonindians Women conductors have been demanding washrooms for over a decade, but nothing has been done yet! Punekars, let us unite to support our workers by demanding safe and accessible toilets in every depot in #Pune. We require at least 1 washroom per 25 women workers and nothing less!

Please share and sign this petition!

According to Section 47 in The Factories Act of 1948, every workplace is legally required to provide its workers with clean and accessible washrooms. Yet, in 2022, most Pune Mahanagar Parivahan Limited depots lack toilets for women! (1/3)

#Workers Make Possible have put up an online petition calling on #Watsons to allow their employees to sit during their shifts. Currently their workers are not able to sit except when they are on short (and insufficient) breaks, resulting in having to stand for hours on end, to the detriment of their #health and well-being. https://www.change.org/p/watsons-let-your-retail-workers-sit

As well as legislation to enforce ‘minimum service levels’ in six sectors, ministers are understood to be considering laws allowing bosses to sue unions if the minimum levels are not met, and the sacking of workers who are told to work under the minimum service requirement but refuse to do so.

Amazing that the govt spokesperson then has the gall to say ‘ It is not our intention to penalise individual members’!

Unions are expected to take legal action against yet further anti-strike laws being prepared by Sunak, which could extend plans for minimum service levels on transport and elsewhere in the public sector, and enforce even higher thresholds for strike action. Anything, it seems, but actually getting around the table with proper offers to resolve the disputes! https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2023/jan/02/unions-expected-to-take-legal-action-against-rishi-sunaks-anti-strike-laws
