“ Facebook moderators forced to work in Dublin office despite high-tier lockdown

Exclusive: Contract staff deemed essential workers as firm’s own employees work from home

Facebook moderators working for one of the company’s Dublin-based contractors are being forced to go into the office, even as Ireland returns to its highest tier of Covid lockdown, after their employer categorised them as “essential workers”.

Staff with personal shielding requirements are exempt from the order, but those with high-risk family members at home have been told by the contractor, CPL, that they are still required in the office.“

All social media and especially forum moderators are essential workers. You should know that.

The Guardian are leaking who is a tulip employer.

Anyone who works in the technology sector and/or at a head office should be able to WFH.
