Workers who were required to watch deeply disturbing videos on TikTok say they were fired after trying to unionise.
The workers were employed as Telus Digital, a Canadian company that provides outsourcing services for TikTok as well as others such as Facebook parent company Meta.
They say that being forced to watch graphic videos damaged their mental health and that they are being punished for attempting to improve their conditions, according to an investigation by The Independent and The Bureau of Investigative Journalism.
