Facebook content moderators are coping with PTSD symptoms by having sex and doing drugs at work, according to a report.
Facebook content reviewers in the U.S. have resorted to extreme measures to cope with the stress of repeatedly viewing graphic and offensive material, according to a new report from The Verge.
The moderators are reportedly paid $15 per hour to work through a queue of content that could range from offensive jokes to potential threats to videos depicting murder. According to a statement sent by Facebook, a Cognizant spokesperson said the company has investigated the issues raised by The Verge and"previously taken action where necessary and have steps in place to continue to address these concerns and any others raised by our employees.
Some employees used drugs at work to numb the pain, according to the report. Workers described to The Verge regularly smoking marijuana on the job and joking to each other about"drinking to forget."
