Telus

Telus is a company that subcontracts content moderators to Meta (Facebook) in Barcelona. Recent news articles highlight the severe mental health consequences experienced by these moderators due to the nature of their work. The moderators are exposed to graphic and disturbing content, including terrorism, murder, and child abuse, leading to post-traumatic stress and other mental health issues. A ruling by the Supreme Court acknowledges that this type of work can cause mental pathologies. The news focuses on the experiences of moderators who have had to take medical leave due to the psychological impact of their jobs. This situation raises concerns about the working conditions and mental health support provided to content moderators and the ethical responsibilities of companies like Meta and Telus.
