Discrimination. Sexual harassment. Unfair pay. This is the reality for too many young women at work. One of our brilliant campaigners spoke out in the Metro today, sharing her story and calling for change. metro.co.uk/2025/07/17/b... #WorkplaceRights #RightsHereRightsNow

My boss asked me to polish table legs as he watched

I felt stunned and uncomfortable, but I didn’t feel like I could say no.

Today we launched our new briefings on student work: Earning While Learning. The briefings, aimed at Employers, Trade Unions, and the Education sector, do not only summarise our findings, but also give targeted recommendations for each sector. Read them here: ywworking.co.uk/briefings/

A week on from the Supreme Court ruling, and our message is simple: it changes nothing about who we’re here for. Trans women, you belong here and we stand with you. Misogyny and sexism harm us all: trans, non-binary or cis.

🚨 Exploitation. Discrimination. Insecurity. Young women are being lured into jobs with the promise of quick cash - only to face low pay, long hours and toxic conditions. Too many are trapped in insecure work with nowhere to turn. 🔗 @mirrortogether.bsky.social www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news...

So much chat about how young people don't want to work... not enough about how zero hours & exploitative practices affect young people, young women most of all. Me + @journomaryamq.bsky.social worked with @youngwomenstrust.bsky.social to uncover some grim tales. mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news...

🚨 The Chancellor talked growth but ignored young women facing unsafe workplaces and discrimination. The Employment Rights Bill is a start, but without enforcement, it's just words. Young women deserve action. 👉 Sign our open letter to demand real change: bit.ly/3QSe0Mi

🏆 Our #Researchoftheweek goes to @youngwomenstrust.bsky.social for their Living precariously: young women’s experiences of insecure work report. It finds young women are more exposed to the challenges of insecure work in low paid sectors. (1/3) www.youngwomenstrust.org/our-research...

Women make up the majority of disabled people and their unpaid carers - you can’t close the gender pay gap and grow the economy through cuts to social security and public services. @youngwomenstrust.bsky.social one of 40+ organisations calling for a rethink 👇

Women's Budget Group@womensbudgetgrp.bsky.social · last yr.

Together with the women’s sector, we oppose the gov’s proposed cuts to disability benefits. We’ve sent an open letter to the Chancellor ahead of tomorrow’s Spring Statement. 🧵 1/3

🚨 It’s 2025, and young women still aren’t treated with respect at work. Zero-hours contracts, low pay, last-minute shift changes - even sexual harassment - are rife. Speaking out can mean losing work. Work should provide stability, not stress. We can’t let this continue.
