The Meaning of Labor Day

By Gabe Gabrielsky The meaning of Labor Day has been lost to most Americans. For most people today Labor Day signifies a great day for bargain sales at retail stores, the beginning of a new school year and most of all the end of summer. In contrast, Labor Day was originally intended to be a celebration for working people in general and by organized labor in particular, was dedicated to the social [...]

The Only Kill Switch We Need

Inside Labor's AI Data Center Split by Ginny Hogan [Excerpts] https://www.laborpolitics.com/p/the-only-kill-switch-weve-got Several weeks ago, Jason Kelce (football player, podcaster, Taylor Swift’s brother-in-law) starred in an ad asking Americans to pee in jars and send them to their nearest AI data center.

Protect Workers from Extreme Heat

by the AFL-CIO Cities coast to coast are breaking all-time heat records this July, as the extreme heat continues. But while workers continue to face dangerous and potentially deadly working conditions, anti-worker leaders in Congress are quietly attempting to stop any heat safety protection laws from being passed, now or in the future. H.R. 6213, the misnamed Heat Workforce Standards Act, would prohibit the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) from creating [...]

Amazon tracks employees’ every move — unless they need an ambulance

Amazon warehouse workers are injured at more than twice the rate of employees at other warehouses. Over 40% have been hurt on the job -- rising to 50% for those who've been there five or more years. Why would the world's largest retailer find itself unable to compete for workplace safety with companies that are far less well-resourced? Unfortunately, these injuries are not unforeseeable accidents. They're the inevitable result of a business [...]
