Small tweaks to language in a peer review can make words wound, rather than offer constructive feedback. Rebekah Baglini and Christine Parsons in a @NatureCareers column explain how to identify and avoid this type of language. #PeerReviewWeek go.nature.com/3dvNJmG

@CapsScientists aren’t the only ones citing retention issues #PayInequity. @jaredblumenfeld @CaliforniaEPA @WadeCrowfoot @CalNatResources also cited these issues in their letters. A better caption: Why does @GavinNewsom ignore Agency Secs when they say there a big issue? @latimes
California state scientists have been working without a contract for more than two years. They plan to keep pushing for big raises, citing retention issues. sacbee.com/news/politics-gov…

Teacher shortage=shortage of good pay? The teacher retention crisis is only getting worse and children are suffering for it. Our latest report reveals the pay gap between teachers and similarly educated non-teachers grew to a record 23.5% in 2021. epi.org/publication/teacher-…

“CAPS’ Bargaining Team has been at the table with Gov. Gavin Newsom’s Department of Human Resources (CalHR) for nearly three years to reach an agreement that would replace the union contract that expired July 1, 2020.” - @EINPresswirePR #ValueScientists

We continue to fight for and demand #payequity even though @CalHR_gov continues to ignore us at the bargaining table! @GavinNewsom, we ask again: Is science actually a priority or just a talking point? #valuescientists #castatescientists #stateworkerwednesday #flatgavin – at Azusa, CA

Picture, nuff said. It's disheartening that after weeks of action that we have no statement, support, or acknowledgement from @CAgovernor @CA_LaborCommish . Thank you all with #ValueScientists #CAStateScientists, & @CA_DaveJones

Hiding behind "R&F employees are subject to collective bargaining" to pretend like these issues aren't occurring under this Administration & failing to do anything about them is cowardly. Address the pay equity issues for your own State employees @GavinNewsom @JenSiebelNewsom

California's approach to the gender pay gap within State service is insufficient. @CalHR_gov continues to ignore GC 19826 & 19827.2. As a result, female-dominated jobs doing the same or comparable work as male-dominated jobs continue to be paid >40% less. #EqualPayCA??
Honored to join the @CCSWG and these phenomenal women leaders on #EqualPayDay! California has some of the strongest pay laws in the nation & one of the smallest pay gaps in the nation – but our work isn’t done until every woman is valued, respected & paid equally for her work!

Even monkeys understand the concept of being cheated for doing similar work. #LikePay #PayParity #ValueScientists
Watch carefully: this is a monkey that gets upset when he's paid less than another monkey for doing the same job [find more, full video: buff.ly/2pbzLta]

Thank you @ABC10 for highlighting the value of scientists! #ValueScientists
I'd like to know that, too, @GavinNewsom @CAgovernor. The people doing the work to protect our environment and public health, including tackling climate change, deserve #EqualPay. You clearly value science, so please also #ValueScientists. Accept @capsscientists MOU proposal.
