Dave FenichelOn August 11, a massive explosion at U.S. Steel’s Clairton Coke Works in <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/Pennsylvania" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Pennsylvania</a> left two workers dead and sent at least 10 others to the hospital. It took rescuers hours to find workers still alive in the wreckage after the blast, which shook homes across the tight-knit steel mill community nestled along the Monongahela River. Officials suspect the cause was a faulty valve and a fatal buildup of gas. This follows Don Trump's postponing the start of hazardous toxin rules — and his approval of the $15 billion sale of <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/USSteel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#USSteel</a> to Nippon Steel who, it was hoped, would be investing in new, cleaner <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/steelmaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#steelmaking</a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#technology</a> to reduce pollution in communities such as <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/Clairton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Clairton</a> while preserving the <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/jobs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#jobs</a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/PA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PA</a> residents have depended on for generations.

Peter Link 🍉🇨🇺🇵🇸🐧EPA Is ‘100 Percent’ Union-Busting, Workers SayAfter ending their collective-bargaining agreements, the <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/EPA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#EPA</a> ordered employees to seek prior approval for protected <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/union" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#union</a> activities on non-duty time.August 25, 2025<blockquote><blockquote>According to an internal advisory obtained by the Prospect, the agency has resorted to citing U.S. Criminal Code as justification for prior authorization, specifically referencing “the representational conflicts of interest statute.” The statute is designed to prevent conflicts of interest emerging from outside employment, whether paid or unpaid, but the EPA appears to be using it to restrict federal <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/workers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#workers</a> from participating in union-protected activities. In the agency’s plane of reality, building support for improved working conditions without permission could be a criminal offense.

Emeritus Prof Christopher MayYou will be unsurprised that the gender pay gap is compounded by motherhood; making mothers even worse paid than women in general.The notion of the 'motherhood penalty' is well known & has been previously established so the Q. is how to respond:Employers need to address prejudice against parents & do better on flexibilities for childcare;The Govt. should also explore better financial support for mothers, who are making a major social contribution.<a href="https://zirk.us/tags/gender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gender</a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/workers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#workers</a> <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/society/2025/aug/25/uk-mothers-earn-302-a-week-less-than-fathers-analysis-shows" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.theguardian.com/society/2025/aug/25/uk-mothers-earn-302-a-week-less-than-fathers-analysis-shows</a>

Emeritus Prof Christopher MayThe rises in the costs of childcare are prompting some employers (perhaps most obviously Amazon who advertise their offer) to employ workers on term-time only contracts.The good thing is this often gives parents much more quality time with their children, while staying in work;the bad thing is that (of course) it depresses wages & household income.However, many employers are needing to find ways to help staff deal with the crisis in child care costs & thus reshaping work!<a href="https://zirk.us/tags/workers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#workers</a> h/t FT
