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!!

Llanelli retail staff report high levels of abuse as campaign calls for stronger protections

Retail staff in Llanelli say they continue to face unacceptable levels of verbal abuse, threats and physical assault while doing their jobs — prompting renewed calls for public respect and tougher enforcement.

The Freedom from Fear campaign, led by trade union Usdaw, was marked at Tesco Trostre with a visit from Dame Nia Griffith MP, alongside Lee Waters MS, Cllr Dot Jones and other local representatives. The event aimed to raise awareness of the abuse faced by shop workers and encourage the public to “keep your cool” in the run-up to Christmas.

Survey shows 71% of retail staff verbally abused

Interim results from Usdaw’s 2025 survey — based on responses from over 3,000 retail workers — show that:

• 71% have experienced verbal abuse in the past year
• 48% were threatened by a customer
• 9% were assaulted

Usdaw general secretary Joanne Thomas said the figures show a “slight downturn” compared to previous years, but warned that the scale of abuse remains “shocking”.

“Nearly three-quarters of those working in retail are regularly facing abuse from customers,” she said. “Far too many are experiencing threats and violence. Our members are saying loud and clear that enough is enough.”

Local voices call for change

Dame Nia Griffith MP said retail workers “deserve to be treated with respect” and backed Usdaw’s call for stronger legal protections.

“We’re introducing a new standalone offence of assaulting a retail worker,” she said. “That gives shop staff the protection they need and sends a clear message that abuse will not be tolerated.”

She also pointed to Labour’s Crime and Policing Bill, which removes the £200 threshold for prosecuting shoplifting and introduces new powers to ban repeat offenders.

Campaigners urge public to ‘respect shop workers’

Usdaw activists say incidents tend to rise in December as shops get busier and customer frustration grows. The union is encouraging staff to report abuse and reject the idea that it’s “part of the job”.

The Freedom from Fear campaign continues throughout the year, with workplace and community events planned across South Wales.

Visiting the Monterey Bay aquarium was the highlight of my vacation to California several years ago. I support the unionization efforts of its employees to ensure that many more visitors have the chance to say the same.

Samedi 13 janvier 2024, voici voilà le programme à #quimper que vous pouvez repoueter en toute liberté :

* de 10 à 13h, permanence syndicale au 22 rue Jean Jaurès (sonner à CNT)

* 16h: #manifestation contre la #loidarmanin , rdv Place St Corentin.

Voici le communiqué d'appel:

La loi asile immigration marque un tournant que nous ne pouvons accepter. Elle reprend de nombreuses idées de l’extrême droite comme la préférence nationale. Cette loi raciste et xénophobe restreint le droit au séjour, s’attaque au droit d’asile, au droit du sol, aux étrangers malades, aux étudiants non européens, au regroupement familial. L’attaque contre l’hébergement d’urgence, le durcissement de l’accès aux prestations sociales dont les allocations familiales et les aides aux logements, vont jeter des familles à la rue ou dans les bras de marchands de sommeil, particulièrement les femmes migrantes.
Cette loi va précariser davantage les travailleuses et travailleurs, les lycéens, les étudiants avec ou sans-papiers. L’arbitraire préfectoral est encore renforcé, refoulement aux frontières, délivrance systématique des OQTF et IRTF. Cette loi s’attaque aux libertés publiques, bafoue les droits fondamentaux tels que le droit d’asile, réinstaure la double peine et fait honte à la France, qui prétend défendre les valeurs d’égalité entre toutes et tous. Nous exigeons donc le retrait de cette loi.
Le collectif asile et immigration appelle toutes les personnes soucieuses de combattre les idées d'extrême droite à participer à un rassemblement samedi 13 janvier à 16 h place Saint Corentin.
