Future me— tonight you learned about American #DavisBacon wage rates — and the recent push to water it down via « ÔTA » other transactional authority during federal procurement.
Apparently, for trade jobs, the #USA has indeed had a national #MinimumWage which is modulated by your locality— just like the federal pay scale, but this thing goes down to zip code level.
Davi’s Bacon wage rates are used for federal standards on how much you pay trades folks for doing certain jobs (think electricians and plumbers and those types of trades jobs.) it introduces the idea of a « prevailing wage » for certain specialized labor tasks.

Workers of the Fediverse
Have you recently participated in an industry training program? Ie. coding bootcamp, apprenticeship readiness program, hospitality training or something similar?
Im attempting to gather information about what these programs can do to help eliminate barriers to participation. Did you need childcare? Transportation assistance? Supplemental income?
What was your experience with the program, and did it properly prepare you for a job in the industry?
Were you educated on your rights as a worker? (Labor Laws and regulations, safety training, right to organize your workplace, etc)
Bonus points if you are/were living and working in the US and if you are of the BIPOC and/or LGBTQ+ community.
Please boost for reach!
Thank you!!#apprenticeshipprograms #workingclass #tradeunion #lgbtqia #bipoc

"Our dispute is over the decision by #Unite Management to unilaterally recognise a staff association with no mandate or majority support from within Unite Officers. This is something that not only goes against a democratic decision taken by the majority of Unite Officers, but stands in contrast to the very principles of collective responsibility, lay member-led decision making, and basic #TradeUnion values that Unite as both a trade union and our employer stands for."

@ajsadauskas.bsky.social Related question for folks on the Fediverse: Are there any unions that you know of that are currently on the Fedi?
If a major Australian Union created a BlueSky account and BridgyFeded it, would you follow it?
What if it were a Pixelfed account that's BridgyFeded to BlueSky?

The imagery used by the US Department of Labour draws on fascist design patterns that are directly reminiscent of Nazi propaganda from the 1930s. Once again, there is no denying that there is no accounting for bad taste. Not only is there a lack of aesthetic education, but the basis of fascism remains an inexhaustible supply of uneducated stupidity and ignorance, especially in leadership positions.

A Anti-Far Right campaign by the British Trade Union Congress on the topic of the far right. Trade unions are among the few institutions that have the resources, campaign expertise and organisational reach to counteract the extreme right.

@cardamomaddict It may be that construction in 2014 was on Weber, going under the train tracks near Victoria? I recall that did happen first, to help make up for the coming changes to King. 2014 was the last year of the parade on King.
King near Allen in September 2015 wasn’t amenable to a parade, though 😀🍻❤️
