Description

Ontario will become the first place in North America to set a minimum wage for gig workers, the provincial government announced yesterday. Find out how technology firms with offices and employees in Ukraine are working to help staff leave the country amid the intensifying Russian invasion. With services like Apple Pay going out of service and the Ruble losing value by the minute, Western sanctions designed to cripple the Russian economy are starting to have a real impact on ordinary Russians.
