Will Elon Musk Give Severance Pay To Laid-Off Twitter Workers

Elon Musk, the new CEO of Twitter, has been struggling after buying Twitter. Now, the laid-off Twitter workers are seeking severance pay. Will Musk give them severance pay?

After taking over Twitter in October 2022, Musk laid off many workers, including the top executives of the social media company. Those employees are still awaiting details of their severance packages.

Musk laid off over 7,000 employees in November 2022. Reportedly, around 1,000 of the workers who were terminated lived in California, a western U.S. state. According to California law, the employees are eligible to keep receiving regular paychecks.

Those employees were seeking severance pay over the past two months. The 60-day period ended on Wednesday. However, those employees did not get any details about additional severance or continuation of health coverage, known as COBRA (Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act).

Twitter has been gripped by multiple lawsuits over unpaid bills, including for private chartered plane flights and rent at one of Twitter’s San Francisco offices.

Lawyer Shannon Liss-Riordan said that hundreds of Twitter workers did not get severance notice or pay. The lawyer reportedly filed private arbitration cases and many federal class-action lawsuits as well as US labor board complaints related to the terminations of Twitter employees. She said that Twitter did not provide the required notice and pay. Around 100 arbitration claims were filed on Thursday.

The lawyer reportedly said, “We don't know what Elon Musk is doing. We expected that those severance agreements would have been sent out by now.”

Recently, the landlord of the Hartford Building -- Columbia Reit - 650 California LLC filed a lawsuit against Twitter over rent payment issues. Twitter reportedly did not pay rent to the building. Twitter occupied the 30th floor of the Hartford Building. 

Twitter also fired its cleaning staff in recent weeks. What will happen to Musk?

The Shocking Hospital Murder Video Exposing Al Julani Group’s Inhumanity in Syria

-
  The Inhuman Reality of a Gruesome Video There is a very disturbing video possibly shot in Syria, that clearly show the enemies of mankind in war crimes. It shows Al Julani’s group killing injured soldiers in a hospital – soldiers who are on the ground, strapped to bandages and wires, powerless to fight back. Such a calculated violence in a structure that is intended for healing resonates violence that has become part and parcel of this conflict. Such gruesome footage raises critical questions: At what point can a faction go in order to subdue another faction and where does the line between war and simple manslaughter lie? A Violation of Moral and Ethical Boundaries Hospitals are always seen as a safe place universally, even when there is war going on. According to the Syrian Observatory of Human Rights (SOHR), such acts took place during the Dawn of Freedom military operation conducted by Turkish-backed groups against the SDF. These fighters are wrong on so many levels – indeed t...

  Iran might be going to lose its partner Hamas, which Israel looks to overcome. Yet, is it likewise going to acquire another accomplice, Sudan, on the western side of the Red Ocean? Just business as usual in Sudan. For quite a long time the nation experienced nationwide conflict and starvation, set off by strict contentions and battles for power between the middle and the fringe, finishing quite a while back in the public authority's mission of slaughters focusing on African ethnic gatherings in the defiant region of Darfur. There was a concise time of trust in 2018 - 2022 when Sudanese rampaged to oust the tactical legislature of General Omar Bashir, who partook in the sponsorship of worldwide Islamists, including the Muslim Fellowship. In October 2020, the temporary government even marked (yet didn't endorse) a standardization concurrence with Israel. From that point forward, the nation's expectations for a quiet change to a majority rules system have been run. In April ...

 TikTok is facing a potential ban in the US and is gearing up for a legal fight. A recently signed law forces the popular video app's parent company, ByteDance, to sell its US operations within nine months or face a shutdown. The US government alleges that ByteDance's ties to China pose a national security risk, with concerns about user data collection. TikTok vehemently denies these accusations and argues the law is a de facto ban. "Make no mistake, this is a ban," declared TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew in a video message. He portrayed the move as an attack on free speech and user expression, claiming the platform reflects American values. TikTok plans to challenge the law in court, citing potential First Amendment violations. The company isn't alone in its resistance. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has also voiced concerns about the law's precedent for government control over social media. This situation highlights the ongoing friction between the US an...
