The story has a link to the National Council for Occupational Safety and Health’s 2019 Dirty Dozen list of the most dangerous employers in the United States.
Facebook is on that list, which surprised me at first, but then I guess it made sense:
● Facebook contracts with outside companies for low-paid moderators who remove
objectionable content from its global social network
● “Every day, every minute… heads being cut off” Moderators review hundreds of posts during a
shift – including hate speech, pornography, and images of suicides, murders and beheadings
● A former employee says: “I don’t think it’s possible to do the job and not come out of it with
some acute stress disorder or PTSD.”
