  • サマリー

  • Meteorology Matters looks at a Washington Post investigation into the deaths of six Impact Plastics employees during Hurricane Helene's flooding in Erwin, Tennessee. The investigation highlights the role of both the severe weather and allegedly inadequate employer responses in the fatalities, contrasting this with the successful rescue of hospital staff and patients. We also examine the deaths of workers at an Amazon warehouse and a Kentucky candle factory during a tornado. The lack of union representation contributed to the workers' inability to leave their workplaces before the disaster and emphasizes the importance of unions in ensuring worker safety and fair treatment. This boils down to the tragic consequences of prioritizing profit over worker safety in the face of extreme weather events.
