Starbucks workers in LA are being forced to work in areas impacted by the recent wildfires - even where the air quality is unsafe.
Management told partners that stores must open because “the community depends on us,” ignoring that some workers had to evacuate their own homes.

It is deeply troubling to see the government take the country backwards by invoking martial law today. The declaration suspends strikes, mass gatherings, work stoppages, all under threat of warrantless arrest. This cannot be tolerated.
Korean unions (KCTU) respond to the declaration of martial law by South Korea's President, which bans strikes, mass gatherings, work stoppages, and more under threat of no-warrant arrest:
