One Future Collective

In one of the longest workers’ strikes in recent Indian history, almost two thirds of the employees of Samsung’s flagship Sriperumbudur, Chennai-based factory have been on strike since September 9. Their demands include higher wages, fixed eight-hour workdays, and the recognition of their recently formed Samsung India Workers Union. After a Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) signed by a workers’ committee favouring the company was rejected by most workers, state Minister for Industries T.R.B. Rajaa requested employees to return to work, calling the continued strike ‘unfair’. Last Wednesday, a police crackdown on protestors led to 10 workers being arrested and later released on their own bail. Meanwhile, in a US visit in early September, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin pitched the state as a destination for global investors. Also of note are the July 2024 protests by the National Samsung Electronics Union in South Korea, over better pay and leave policies. 🛠️ Need labour rights and regulations advisory for yourself or someone else?

As we observe Mental Health Month this October, we're excited to highlight our One Future Peer Listening Helpline, a vital resource open to everyone seeking support. From April to October 2024, we’ve answered 491 calls. Our volunteers are at the heart of this initiative. One volunteer shared, "Working on the peer support helpline has deepened my understanding of mental health challenges. It's about creating a sense of community and connection while reducing stigma around mental health." Our helpline is part of our Digital Community Centre, providing a safe space for individuals to share their feelings with our trauma-informed peer listeners. This pro-bono service is available in both Hindi and English, ensuring that everyone can find the support they need. 📞 If you’re looking for someone to listen, don’t hesitate to reach out! We’re available every Monday to Friday from 10:00 AM to 06:00 PM at 08043053588. 💚 - #MentalHealthMonth #PeerSupport #OneFutureHelpline #MentalHealthAwareness #mentalhealthhelpline #helpline #compassionfatigue 

This Mental Health Day, as the world focuses on workplace mental health, we’re excited to launch the Civil Society Wellness Protocol—a vital initiative addressing the often-overlooked wellness of civil society workers. The seeds of this project were planted during the pandemic when frontline civil society workers in India were largely invisibilised. Despite working on the frontlines, they were left out of conversations around workplace rights and wellness. Lacking institutional and infrastructural support, these workers faced immense compassion fatigue. This highlighted a broader issue: the systemic deprioritisation of civil society workers' wellness and workplace rights. Through the Civil Society Wellness Protocol, we’re diving deeper into what wellness should mean for civil society organizations (CSOs) and the workers within them. Over the next year, we’ll be creating a set of actionable principles, measurable indicators, and tools that address the real needs of CSO workers—those who are vital to creating change but often lack the necessary support. We’re building this with you, seeking your input, feedback, and collaboration to ensure these efforts reflect the realities and needs of our sector. ✨ Watch as our Founder & CEO, Vandita Morarka shares more about why we’re launching this protocol and what we aim to achieve through it. 💡 Stay tuned for more resources, tools, and updates as we embark on this important journey together! - #MentalHealthMonth, #CivilSocietyWellness #WorkplaceWellness #FeministLeadership #SupportFrontlineWorkers #CompassionFatigue #SocialJustice #WellnessInCSOs #MentalHealthMatters #OneFutureCollective #mentalheathday #wellness #workplacewellness #civilsociety #civilsocietyworkers #socialjustice #wellnessprinciples #civilsocietywellnessprotocol #protocols #ngoworkers #socialimpact #onefuturecollective #ofcimpact
