It’s incredibly sad to see that early childhood educators earn as little as a packer or a trolley collector.

It’s imperative that we continue to advocate for fair wages and recognition for early childhood educators. Their work is foundational to our society.

A neglected benefit of hybrid work: it improves career options for moms.

As remote work expands, mothers earn more and are more likely to be employed—especially in family-unfriendly fields like finance.

Flexibility doesn't just facilitate balance. It broadens opportunity.

[Seonad Madden @SeonadM]

Birth rates are falling in the Nordics. Are family-friendly policies no longer enough? Such an intersting article and area of research! https://t.co/IX9ofUwcNa via @ft

New editorial out now! https://t.co/OkLnYdnXWY

I've heard it claimed this is a 'participatory era' for health research & services. The number of publications claiming to have done #codesign, #coproduction, or #PatientAndPublicInvolvement has increased by over 600% since 2014.

@rachelburden You can get a brush attachment for your drill that would make light work of this

[Seonad Madden @SeonadM]

Resilience and persistence rolled into one. Well done Pragya, a great read!

@DrTedros General workplace programs are not targeted enough and are too reliant on individuals to make changes. Regulation needs to be part of the solution

[Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus @DrTedros]

Half of the world’s population are working people, and those of us who work spend at least 1/3 of our adult life in the workplace.

Work is a source of income and social contact, and it can be beneficial to mental health as a source of value, purpose and meaning.

But a lack of health and safety measures at work can result in death, disability and suffering.

More than 2 million people die each year because of occupational and work-related diseases.

Nobody should get sick because of work.

At #UNGA, countries committed to build healthier and safer workplaces, and improve access to occupational health services.

To build on this, we are developing a new vision for how workplaces can protect, serve and promote health.

A group of experts gathered at @WHO earlier this week and discussed workplace health programmes in countries and businesses which combine traditional occupational health and safety measures with well-being.

In practice, this includes no tobacco, less alcohol, and more physical activity, as well as business continuity plans to prepare workplaces for public health crises.

In 2024, we will work with our colleagues at @ilo to develop a global framework for action on health in the workplace.

We will work with countries to spur the development of healthier, safer, and more resilient workplaces in all sectors, enterprises, and farms, and in public, private, and informal settings.

@BrionyHill5 @SarahJaneBell94 @Rebecca7Maddern How frustrating to speak with someone who continues to use language that is not person-centred!

Well done Briony, you were wonderful 😀
