#righttowork

In 1847, the French socialist Louis Blanc coined the phrase ‘the right to work’, by which he meant that citizens had a right to gainful employment. Today, this idea is called a ‘job guarantee’, and it enjoys growing popularity. However, the phrase ‘the right to work’ has long since been co-opted by reactionaries to refer to union-busting legislation.

Can't not wait to stop having leads at work with their breaths smelling like booze, incompetent management and old overweight stewards who continually ignore the contract and wouldn't know how to work if you paid them double not to mention that now non union has better talent and skills now! My union(the leaders continually argue its a buisness not a union) is disgusting and a complete joke.#righttowork. I can't wait to make the full switch out of this joke of a union hall to spending my time working on something real not some bullshit political lie to further myself while screwing everyone else #righttowork @Regranned from @work_with_kevinmarino - You are the author of your own life. #Business #Entrepreneur #LearnLife #Motivation #SmallBusiness #Marketing #Entrepreneurship #Money #SocialMediaMarketing #BusinessWoman #SocialMedia #Successful #NetworkMarketing #InstaGood #Inspiration #Branding #Love #BusinessOwner #WorkFromHome #StartUp #Goals #Leadership #Entrepreneurs #Motivational #Hustle #Businessman #Ambition #Winning #EntrepreneurLife #Boss

FACTS: #RightToWork drives down wages, raises the poverty rate and make us less safe at work. It’s WRONG for working families.

It's about time.#RightToWork

A national right to work law has been a pipe dream of corporate lobbyists, the chamber of commerce, the Koch brothers, and the politicians on their payroll for decades, and is about to become a reality. Right to work laws already exist in more than half the states in the country, where unions are weak or nonexistent, wages are correspondingly low, and workers are correspondingly disposable. In theory, these laws are about guaranteeing workers’ freedom of association. In practice, they’re about keeping workers from forming unions, by making unions financially unsustainable.

With all eyes on Trump, Republicans are planning to break unions for good

🆔🔐 Digital ID, Cyber Security, and Charity-Sector Risks — What UK leaders need to know

The landscape is shifting fast. From government plans for Digital ID to a spike in cyber incidents and growing financial pressure on charities, there’s a lot to track—and practical steps you can take today. Here’s the quick rundown with actions to keep your organisation resilient. 💼✨

1) Digital ID is coming to the workplace

Government proposals indicate Digital ID could become the standard for Right to Work checks.

IDs would be stored securely on phones, with robust encryption and alternatives for non‑smartphone users.

A formal consultation is expected—employers should get ready to engage.

👉 Action:

Map your onboarding/RTW process now, identify what would change, and prepare a fallback route for those without smartphones.

Watch for consultation updates and plan policy updates in advance.

2) Cyber security: practical help you can use today

UK threat activity remains elevated, with major incidents continuing to rise.

Free/low‑cost support is available to raise your baseline quickly.

👉 Action:

Use the NCSC Cyber Action Toolkit to prioritise controls.

Consider Cyber Essentials certification (which can include cyber liability insurance for eligible SMEs).

Sign up for Early Warning alerts and use takedown services to tackle spoofing/phishing.

3) Charity-sector risk picture

More charities are running operating deficits while demand rises and costs remain high.

Greater reliance on reserves and ongoing concerns around public trust highlight the need for tighter governance.

👉 Action:

Refresh cashflow forecasting and scenario plans.

Revisit your reserves policy and risk register.

Ensure trustees have clear oversight and timely management information.

Coaches Highlight Neglected Training, Renovation Spending Spree

Peshawar, Pakistan - In a scathing letter addressed to the Chief Minister, Advisor Sports, and Secretary Sports of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, a group of daily wage coaches have highlighted the alleged neglect of training programs and misuse of funds within the Provincial Sports Directorate.

The letter, penned by a concerned coach on behalf of his colleagues, criticizes the directorate for running without coaches for almost a year (July 2023-March 2024).  The coaches claim that training continues without proper guidance, while millions of rupees are being spent on renovating the Director General's office, including furniture and bathroom fixtures.

The letter further exposes alleged discrepancies in coach selection. It criticizes the inclusion of retired employees with hefty pensions and non-performing coaches who lack recent achievements. The coaches urge the authorities to prioritize qualified and dedicated individuals who can demonstrably improve player performance.

The plight of the daily wage coaches extends beyond financial hardship. The letter emphasizes the mental stress they endure due to job insecurity, particularly during Ramadan when basic necessities are scarce for their families.

The coaches propose a performance-based system where coaches are evaluated quarterly based on the number of players trained and their progress.  They further call for transparency in the selection process and advocate for investigative measures to address the alleged presence of a "private mafia" operating fitness businesses within the directorate.

The letter concludes with a criticism of journalists who fail to address the issues faced by athletes, coaches, and sports infrastructure. The coaches urge them to fulfill their responsibility to advocate for the underprivileged.
