Companies have a simple, legal way to help workers living in anti-abortion states: more paid time off
(THE CONVERSATION) Employers looking for ways to support their workers seeking abortions in states where it’s now illegal or soon will be don’t have it easy. From an employer’s standpoint, abortion is considered a type of health care benefit – and the rules that apply to that benefit are shifting rapidly from state to state. Abortion is also a political flashpoint guaranteed to produce controversy. And the problem is not going away anytime soon. Some companies are vowing to cover the cost of traveling out of state to get the procedure where it is still legal. Others are emphasizing that their insurance plans explicitly cover abortions. As a legal scholar specializing in employment law, I believe there’s also a third option that may not be as generous but is less likely to run into legal problems – and will help more workers, especially those with low incomes. Covering medical costs directly As of 2020, the median cost of an abortion was US$500 to $600 in the first … [Read more...] about Companies have a simple, legal way to help workers living in anti-abortion states: more paid time off
Ukraine begs UK to put warships in Black Sea to help get grain out of country
Royal Navy warships should police a deal allowing grain exports from Black Sea ports, a Ukrainian MP said today. Odessa MP Alex Goncharenko - described as a key ally of President Volodymyr Zelensky - wanted British frigates and destroyers to help provide safe passage for vessels bringing crops out of the war-torn nation. Speaking to reporters on the margins of the NATO Summit in Madrid, he called for “some kind of political deal” between the West, Turkey and Russia to allow freight ships to access Black Sea ports and release crops. “For example, today Russia is exporting millions of barrels of oil everyday through the Bosphorus - it can be said to them for humanitarian reasons, ‘Either your oil and Ukrainian grain is coming or nothing is coming,” he said. “That would be absolutely just and clear and it can be done without any military operations, no risk of military attacks.” He believed oil should be used as “leverage” to force the Kremlin to “open the Black Sea”.
