For many of our workers, Mother’s Day holds a lot of special emotional significance, because they are caring for children who are miles away. Some have experienced a motherly relationship with someone who does not wear the title through birth. The common thread running through those who value Mother’s Day is the desire to express gratitude towards the mothers we know.

CSS will acknowledge Mother’s Day by offering a special Mothers Day dinner to a mother on our team. We know that every worker may not celebrate Mother’s Day, because some people have complicated relationships with the concept of motherhood. In this age of political correctness it is important to approach the holiday with sensitivity and respect for different perspectives.

Mothers contribute significantly to the workforce and work outside the home in so many diverse fields. They usually take real life home management experience with them. According to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2020, 70.8% of mothers with children under the age of 18 were in the labor force, with nearly 47% working full-time. This contribution to the economy is crucial, since they build the labourforce and also help sustain it. 

In my experience mothers bring a unique set of skills and experiences to our clients’ workforce. The mothers on CSS’ team often have strong multitasking abilities and effective time management skills. Maybe the roles that most play inside their families enable them to build up an ability to handle high levels of stress. 

These are all reasons why CSS recognizes the value that mothers bring to our clients’ work teams. We also recognize how important agencies like ours have become to mothers who seek family-friendly agreements like flexible schedules and locations. Those with younger children value locations that offer on-site childcare and other support to contractors who are parents.

On Sunday we cannot afford to avoid reflecting on mothers everywhere. Whether a mother is part of the labor force or not, she contributes greatly to the society, country and economy. CSS will identify one amazing matriarch who cannot be overlooked. The mother who we will find provides critical care and support to her family and also has a positive impact on the productivity and well-being of other workers.

For commuting workers’ it often reduces disposable income and makes it harder to make ends meet.

Our team at CSS Jobs Interface brainstormed some steps that workers can take to cushion the impact of rising gas prices. 

Here are five tips to help you cope with gas price increase:

• Find Cheaper Alternative Transportation Options

One of the most effective ways to cushion rising gas prices is to find alternative transportation options. Consider: carpooling with coworkers, taking public transportation, or biking to work. CSS Jobs Interface will try to offer our contractors shared options which can help our signed workers to reduce their transportation costs.

• Plan Your Routes

Planning your routes helps you to reduce the amount of gas you use. Avoid routes with heavy traffic or stop-and-go driving as best as you can. Congested and winding routes can significantly increase your fuel consumption. CSS Jobs Interface encourages contractors to use navigation apps to find the quickest and most efficient routes to work and other destinations.

• Drive More Efficiently

Driving more efficiently can also help you save on gas. Avoid aggressive driving, such as rapid acceleration or hard braking. These significantly increase your fuel consumption. Also keep your vehicle well-maintained, with regular oil changes and tire rotations, since good maintenance improves gas mileage.

• Reduce Your Overall Driving

Reducing your overall driving can greatly help. Consider consolidating your errands to reduce the number of trips you need to make. Also consider walking or biking for shorter trips, such as nearby appointments or light shopping.

• Consider a Fuel-Efficient Vehicle

If you’re in the market for a new vehicle, consider choosing a fuel-efficient model. This can help you save on gas in the long run and offset the impact of rising gas prices.

These five steps will help you to cushion the impact of gas price increase on your pocket. By finding alternative transportation options, planning your routes, driving more efficiently, reducing your overall driving, and considering a fuel-efficient vehicle, some of CSS Jobs Interface workers have already reduced their transportation costs and cope with rising gas prices easier.

The tool and die workers in a 62-9 vote rejected a campaign by the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM), according to results announced by the U.S. National Labor Relations Board.

The 75 technicians would have been the first group to unionize at the Japanese automaker’s largest assembly plant in North America. The union has five days to file objections to the election results.

Last month, the Democrat-controlled National Labor Relations Board rejected Nissan’s claim that any election should also involve thousands of production-line workers because they share working conditions with the technicians. The Smyrna plant has more than 7,000 employees.

Nissan spokesperson Lloryn Love-Carter said, “Nissan respects this decision, and we remain focused on working with employees to drive our future forward together.”

The union in a statement a spokesperson provided said the delayed decision from the labor board – which came two years after IAM first filed a petition to represent the workers – had “a chilling effect” on the union’s campaign.

“The IAM will continue to support these workers so we will be prepared for them to join our union when the time is right again,” the union said.

Unions have struggled for decades to unionize the Smyrna factory, which opened in 1983, and other auto plants in the U.S. South. In 1989 and 2001, workers in Smyrna voted overwhelmingly against joining the United Auto Workers union.
