More Support for New York Anti-Workplace Bullying Bill

Thursday, January 2nd, 2014

New York Committee for Occupational Safety and Health, Inc.

Memo of Support

The mission of NYCOSH is to extend and defend every person’s human right to a safe and healthful work environment.

Abusive work environments are health damaging to workers and can also cause collateral damage to the family, friends and associates of those who are affected by workplace harassment.

NYCOSH opposes all forms of discrimination, including, but not limited to, discrimination based on race, gender, age, language, country of origin, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, disability, socioeconomic status, marital status, political beliefs, and immigration status.

NYCOSH supports the New York State Healthy Workplace Bill which addresses status blind harassment in the workplace and offers remedy whereby the legislation “Establishes a civil cause of action for employees who are subjected to an abusive work environment.”

NYCOSH urges our New York State elected officials to support, bring to a vote, and pass the Healthy Workplace Bill S3863/A4965 in the current legislative session.

New York Committee for Occupational Safety and Health, Inc. 61 Broadway, Suite, 1710 New York, New York 10006 (212) 227-6440 – fax (212) 227-9854

A Riposte to Colleague Bernard Stein’s Things Are Great With D:F/M Journalism – Part I

Wednesday, December 18th, 2013

Serious journalism and media students on this campus don’t realize, or maybe “don’t imagine” is a better phrase, with whom they are competing  for the best internships. It’s not just students from City University of New York or NYU and Fordham and other local higher ed institutions but The Ivy League, The Big Ten, Rutgers, The Big 12 and more. That’s because New York City is the nation’s media mecca and attracts the attention of fortune hunters from around the country if not the globe.

That realization caused this writer to connect early on with organizations like the Center for Communication, The Business Press Education Foundation, The American Society of Magazine Editors, New America Media, The Independent Press Association (now defunct), The Robert McCormick Foundation, The Ford Foundation, The Foreign Press Association of New York, the Poynter Institute and numerous others.

It also was the primary reason for starting the WORD. So, when a Colleague trumpets thef message (see below) celebrating D:F/M’s debauched journalism effort, I struggle to suppress the scream.
