Workers deserve a seat at the table!

In 2022, Teleperformance and UNI Global Union signed a global agreement ensuring the right of workers to organize free from interference, but Teleperformance has yet to implement the agreement in the US. The agreement covers nearly 500,000 Teleperformance employees globally.

Today, we held a national day of action to call for accountability from @teleperformance-gp.bsky.social!

As a subsidiary of @teleperformance-gp.bsky.social, LLS is party to the Teleperformance-UNI Global Agreement on Social Responsibility, which affords workers the right to organize a union free of mgmt interference & intimidation. But the company is refusing to implement the agreement in the US.

CWA conducted a survey of more than one hundred interpreters employed by LLS that found 59% of respondents reported earning less than the San Francisco MCO-mandated wage, 26% reported earning less than the Los Angeles statutory living wage.

Wage Complaints Filed Against LanguageLine Solutions Across California Today, CWA union requested investigations into violations of Los Angeles’s Living Wage Ordinance and San Francisco’s Minimum Compensation Ordinance by LanguageLine Solutions.

Today, we filed wage complaints against LanguageLine Solutions across California.

Workers at the company are organizing a union with CWA to address low wages and unsustainable working conditions, which also impact service quality for clients.

If they do not, we will hold them accountable at the ballot box and elect a Congress that understands that the health and well-being of working people is more important than the bottom line of billionaires.

CWA members will not give up on this fight. Health care coverage is a matter of life and death. We expect our elected representatives to extend the ACA subsidies before they expire at the end of this year.

While Republican leaders in the Senate have agreed to hold a vote on extending the subsidies they have not committed to supporting an extension. The expiration of these subsidies, along with cuts to Medicaid, will drive up insurance costs for all of us & destroy over half a million health care jobs.
