|    CWA Organizing Update [telecom]    |
|    22 Jul 22 23:04:49    |
      From: malQRMassimilation@gmail.com              Activision Blizzard              Quality Assurance testers at Activision Blizzard in Albany, N.Y.,       formerly Vicarious Visions, became the second group of Activision       Blizzard workers to form a union with CWA. On Tuesday, a supermajority       of the workers announced the formation of the Albany Game Workers       Alliance/CWA and filed for a union representation election with the       National Labor Relations Board after requesting voluntary recognition       last week.              Wise Connect (Lumen)              Technicians in Colorado who work for Wise Connect, a contractor for       Lumen, have been organizing for a union with CWA to fight for better       working conditions. The workers are facing various challenges       including low pay, unsafe working conditions, lack of supplies, and a       lack of dignity and respect on the job. They recently won an Unfair       Labor Practice (ULP) case which galvanized many of the workers to join       the organizing effort. The ULP charge was regarding unfair       surveillance and a veiled threat by the company to shut down the       contract if workers join the union. The technicians who are organizing       firmly believe that, by doing so, they can create a better environment       for themselves and provide a better path for future contract       technicians at Lumen.              https://cwa-union.org/news/organizing-update-166              --       (Please remove QRM from my email address to write to me directly)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
