After sustained efforts by @gigwaindia since May 2024, @ndmaindia has issued a dedicated advisory on heat preparedness for informal & gig workers.
In a significant move, NDMA has also released an advisory on gender-responsive disaster risk reduction & resilience.
Over 25 crore workers has stopped work- not out of choice, but necessity.
When workers rise, it's not just about wages - it is about dignity, rights, and justice.
We stand in solidarity with all those demanding fair working conditions.

Decentralising weather alerts = making them
✅ Local

Air-conditioners are not a solution to the growing heat crisis they’re part of the problem ❌
ACs release hot air into already overheated environments, making cities hotter and worsening the urban heat island effect. 🌆🔥

What’s needed?
✅ Accessible cooling shelters
✅ Shaded public spaces
✅ Clean drinking water
✅ Sanitation facilities
All integrated into urban design. Cities must be built for everyone, not just for those who can afford appliances.

This is about equity. Everyone deserves protection from extreme heat — not just those who can escape indoors.
We must shift the narrative from personal cooling to collective resilience. 🌍🌱

Endless targets, no shade or water. India’s gig economy is built on worker exploitation.

Companies offer no medical support. Time to hold @blinkitcares @amazonIN accountable.

We get AC + rest days. They get helmets +
heatwaves. Offer water. Offer dignity.

@Swiggy @zomato @amazonIN
This #WorldEnvironmentDay, stand with South Asia’s workers — from farmers to Zepto riders — facing deadly heat, floods & exploitation.
They're on the frontlines of climate collapse, yet excluded from decision.

#Blinkit has blocked IDs of 150 workers for exercising their constitutional right ofvgoing on strike to demand:
-An end to mandatory work between 12-4 pm.
-Shaded waiting areas with drinking water, and fans.
-Cotton uniforms for the summer.
#WorldDayforSafetyandHealthatWork
Parliamentary Standing Committee on Home Affairs formally recognizes heatwaves as disasters! Urges inclusion in disaster plans, resilient infrastructure, and a long-term climate adaptation roadmap. A milestone, now for real action!
#ClimateAction #HeatwaveCrisis
Toxic air. Deadly heat. Unsafe sites.
Climate change is making work dangerous.
No job should risk health or life.
Demand climate-safe workplaces now.
✊🏽 Stand with workers. Take action.
#WorkerSafety #ClimateJustice #LaborRights #FairWork #SafeWork #HeatStress
Workers power our world, but many earn less than they need to live.
Climate change worsens this injustice, raising living costs while wages stay low.
Fair wages and equal pay aren’t optional they are a right.
#EqualPay #WorkersRights #ClimateJustice
Workers power our world, but too often, they must choose between survival and safety. From rising #heat to #toxicpollution, #climatechange is escalating the #crisis.
Follow along this #week as we post about #laborrights because dignity and safety are non-negotiable for workers
