Woolworths is downplaying supply shortages despite photos on social media showing bare shelves as strikes continue at the supermarket giants' distribution centres.

We are starting to see the amount of money Woolworths is willing to pay to ignore striking workers' call for a fair workplace - $50 MILLION and counting Seems they saved up a lot squeezing their shoppers & workers over the last few years! #WooliesStrike theguardian.com/business/2024/…

Through torrential rain and oppressive heat the Woolies warehouse workers are holding the line. They're fighting for safer work, secure jobs and fair pay, but instead Woolworths want to treat these people like disposable machinery that can be mistreated until they're broken.

We stand with striking warehouse at Woolworths (who co-own us). Their fight in the face of inhumane algorithms is part of the struggle for the social control of technology, and human decency in the midst of the climate crisis. Go here: unitedworkers.org.au/woolworths/

The dispute causing empty shelves at Woolies is a test case for companies using AI and automation on workers theconversation.com/the-dispute-ca…

The idea that Woolworths is being hard done by….1200 workers stricking for pay and safety after pushing most families into a cost of living crisis with sky rocketing prices is just beyond belief #auspol #woolies

Ewin Hannan A significant win for this great union (my old union). Winning employees' rights over Ai algorithm determination of imposed efficiency standards. Probably the first Union win over Ai and a precedent for future Ai conflicts.

My eldest can only read my book in short bursts because it makes her freak out that she is in imminent danger of being sacked. I, for one, did not see that reaction coming.
