Waffle House正在美国劳工倡导者一年的推动后，为其员工加薪。Waffle House首席执行官Joe Rogers III在上月晚些时候向员工发布的视频消息中表示，基本工资将从六月起至少提高至每小时3美元，然后逐渐提高至2026年六月的至少每小时5.25美元。Rogers说，基本工资不包括员工的小费，根据州的最低工资法律，某些州的基础工资会更高。工资涨幅将由菜单价格上涨来支付，并且在一些农村市场上工资将比城市市场上上涨速度慢。公司还增加了工作年限奖金和晚班加班费。当美联社联系Waffle House以确认加薪消息时，Waffle House周二没有对加薪一事予以确认。服务员工会Southern Service Workers工会提供了该视频链接。过去一年来，Southern Service Workers工会曾在Waffle House的多个店铺罢工，要求加薪、24小时安保和终止公司每天从员工工资中扣除3.15美元用于餐食的做法。该组织还要求劳工部审查餐食扣除部分。Waffle House在美国有2,000家餐厅，主要分布在南部和中西部。该公司的总部位于乔治亚州Norcross。

彭博社 -- 由於行業面臨不斷上升的成本、有限的基礎設施和政策不確定性，全球風電增長預計今年將放緩。根據彭博NEF的報告，預計2024年風力裝置將增長近6％。這與2023年幾乎增長了35％相比。雖然預測行業將增加124吉瓦的容量 - 這是一個記錄性的增加 - 從2023年到2024年僅增加了7吉瓦。這與BNEF的數據顯示的前一年的增長相比僅增加了30吉瓦。這種停滯發展到來的時候正值全球各國政府競相增加可再生能源供應，以應對氣候變化。儘管BNEF預測全球風力容量將在2035年增加三倍，但這仍遠遠不足以在2050年實現淨零排放，報告指出。一吉瓦大致相當於一個核反應堆的輸出，可以為約75萬個美國家庭提供電力。
