UiO-forsker (og Fafo-kollega) Elias Nosrati finner at økt formuesskatt, med noen mindre endringer, kan bidra til mer effektiv ressursfordeling. Anbefalt lesning! sociologicalscience.com/articles-v12...

I need you to understand what this country feels like right now for those of us who look different. I'm sitting here, trying to plan for Saturday, make sure I don't even need to go to the corner shop for milk, like it's Christmas Day or lockdown. Why? Because I live near where Yaxley-Lennon will 1/

DOGE has reportedly gained access to sensitive NLRB data — including info on union activity, workplace complaints, and names of organizers. Coincidentally, the NLRB has multiple lawsuits against SpaceX and Tesla. The conflicts of interest just keep getting more blatant.

Wolt couriers are employees and not freelancers. This was decided by Oslo city court yesterday. The court points to them being subordinated their employer and in need for protection. Wolt says they haven’t decided whether they will appeal.

I was just told that I have to remove “climate” from the title of an ongoing grant if I want to keep it. And publications from that grant cannot include “climate” and other forbidden words. I can’t believe I’m writing this from the United States of America. #AcademicSky

Forskerne som var viktige for at EU fikk et minstelønnsdirektiv forklarer hvorfor ikke alt håp er ute for direktivet, selv om Generaladvokaten mener at det bør annulleres. Direktivet er så langt ikke ansett relevant for Norge.

En utvidet versjon av dagens tråd her på Bluesky - om Musk og all fornektelsen vi har sett utfolde seg i dag.

Tilretteleggere, tåkeleggere og nyttige idioter
At så mange nå omskriver det Elon Musk gjorde i går, kaller det «obskurt» eller et utslag av glede (!), er illevarslende for tida vi går inn i.

Wolt is an employer according to a Swedish lower court, and is thereby responsible for the working environment of their carriers. The food delivery company is expected to lodge an appeal to the Supreme Court. A similar case between Wolt and a Norwegian union is planned in the beginning of 2025.

Domen: Wolt är arbetsgivare åt matbuden
Matbudsföretaget Wolt ska ta ansvar för matbudens arbetsmiljö. Det slår kammarrätten fast i en dom och konstaterar att företaget ska ses som arbetsgivare åt buden.

In Sweden, 80% of private sector employees are covered by a collective agreement. As they don’t have any statutory minimum wage, wage floors are secured through CA. Tesla mechanics have been on strike for more than one year to have Tesla sign an agreement. 1/2 1/2

Ligger vel an til at fleksitidsavtalen i staten skrotes, og at ansatte trekkes i lønn om de forsover seg.

Hvis #sykelønnsordningen svekkes for arbeidstakerne, vil det ikke få betydning for de som har tariffestet rett til full lønn under sykdom, dvs. hele offentlig sektor og enkelte funksjonærer i privat sektor, men for arbeideryrker i privat sektor og de uten tariffavtale (eller annen avtale).
