🎓 When a few elite institutions train most professors, intellectual life risks becoming an echo chamber. A new article in HxA's inquisitive examines how faculty pipelines shape American academic life:
#BREAKING #BENGALURU @urbancompany_UC tried to threaten workers with the police, but we know our rights ✊🏿✊🏿🗣️🗣️ #GigWorkersRights #GigWork #UrbanCompany
Much grateful to @uniglobalunion for support and solidarity in publishing our success in Bihar that we achieved in collaboration with @AiwuInd . @ACORNGlobal uniglobalunion.org/news/historic-…
Low wages, threats from aggregators: @TGPWU releases ‘Impact report’ As many as 84.38 percent of the respondents expressed dissatisfaction with the base compensation models used by the aggregators. siasat.com/low-wages-thre…
VIDEO | As the Karnataka government passes the Platform-Based Gig Workers (Social Security and Welfare) Bill 2025, Minister Santosh Lad (@SantoshSLadINC) says, “I am happy that the bill has been passed, and all MLAs, irrespective of party, welcomed it. This bill aims to provide…
Ashok working with @letsblinkit has suffered a road accident in Chandigarh. He is receiving treatment at PGI Chandigarh and described as out of danger. We urge urgent support for Ashok by @letsblinkit @LabourMinistry @uniglobalunion @TGPWU
Which economic class or social group do stray dogs often attack? The poorest and the weak. Women walking to work as domestic helpers, toddlers, newspaper delivery boys, milkmen, school kids Most animal lovers don't understand this simple fact cos they live in their elite bubble
The @TGPWU Demands @zomato Take Full Responsibility After Delivery Worker Syed Farhan Falls into Drainage During Hyderabad Rains On 9 Aug 2025, Zomato delivery worker Syed Farhan fell into an open drainage near TKR Kaman during heavy rain, losing his bike and phone. 1/3
🚨 Hyderabad | 9 Aug 2025, 9:30 PM Near TKR Kaman, @zomato delivery Worker falls into drainage during heavy rain — bike & phone gone. ₹10 rain bonus = worker’s life, @deepigoyal❓ 💔 @TelanganaCMO @revanth_anumula @Ponnam_INC @VivekVenkatswam #TGPWU #ShaikSalauddin #GigWorkers
This is worth repeating: clear admission from Uber in today's earning call of what was long suspected but never admitted: Uber is harvesting data from their driver workforce to train autonomous vehicle AI models to replace them.
We appreciate @letsblinkit ’s initiative offering free doctor consultation & medicines to delivery partners and families on 5th Aug. A step in the right direction! 💊🩺 But health doesn’t follow a schedule — we urge such services to continue 24×7, all days for gig workers. #TGPWU
AI doesn't just mean investing trillions into building data centres, it means building different types of data centres that are incredibly energy dense and intensive to power and cool the AI chips. Great news in a burning world!
The world is heading toward a shortfall of 18 million health workers by 2030 — especially in low-income countries. We must scale up investments in care and health workforces to ensure no one is left behind. New ILO Brief explains: ow.ly/evwU50WtOV1
In deathly heat and monsoon floods, #gigworkers are forced by #algorithms and #corporategreed to put our lives on the line for speedy deliveries & on-time services❌ Are are lives worth less than @Swiggy @zomato @letsblinkit @ZeptoNow @urbancompany_UC profits??
No one should have to choose between working and being free. This #WorldDayAgainstTrafficking, the ILO calls for safe migration pathways, strong labour rights & zero tolerance for forced labour. #EndHumanTrafficking
1 out of 10 children are engaged in child labour worldwide - nearly half of them are involved in hazardous work that directly jeopardizes their health, safety or morals. 👉Check out @ilo and @UNICEF report: buff.ly/ZtG2jb9 #EndChildLabour
We are celebrating the passing of bill for Platform based workers in Bihar.

Yes. Writing is not a second thing that happens after thinking. The act of writing is an act of thinking. Writing *is* thinking. Students, academics, and anyone else who outsources their writing to LLMs will find their screens full of words and their minds emptied of thought.
Investing in integrated and coherent care policy packages has strong employment generation potential. Understand how these investments would benefit the labour market, individuals, families and society: ow.ly/NAmu50WqAe9
