Over 40 contractors for YouTube Music are going on strike — a first at Google,. The action is in response to an order to return to in-person work next week, something that many of the workers say they can’t do. They’re demanding a return-to-work policy that’s “fair, flexible, and does not threaten the safety and livelihoods of workers,” according to an AWU press release.
The workers are part of the YouTube Music Content Operations team via Cognizant, a subcontractor for Alphabet, Google and YouTube’s parent company. Their jobs are to “ensure music content is available and approved” for the platform, according to aThe objections to the return to office plan stem from pay and availability.
judging by the quality of Youtube Music you would think they had been on strike all along...
Important part from the post: “communicated to [the workers] repeatedly since December 2021,” and that they had taken the positions “WITH the understanding that they were accepting in-office positions '
Courageous. This is probably not a good time to strike though when tech companies are doing mass layoffs.
