WASHINGTON — With the US election days away, Vice-President Kamala Harris is struggling to secure the support of male volunteers in some labour unions whose phone calls and house visits are needed to get Democratic supporters out to vote, senior labour officials said.

Most unions have long supported Democratic candidates, and both Harris and President Joe Biden have backed unions in contract negotiations and championed workers' rights.

Larger service unions, where membership is more diverse, have witnessed a growing gender gap, where a drop in male support has been offset by a surge in support from women, labour officials say.

Most major unions have endorsed Harris, including the United Auto Workers union, but it is a mixed picture at the rank-and-file level across industries and different parts of the country.

In May 2023, Sheeran defeated a separate copyright lawsuit by Townsend's heirs, who own a separate share of his interest in Let's Get It On, in a closely watched jury trial.

Judge Stanton found that the musical elements Sheeran allegedly copied were too common to merit copyright protection.

The appeals court agreed, saying that protecting the elements could stifle creativity, and that Sheeran's and Gaye's songs were not similar enough for Sheeran's to have infringed on SAS' copyright.

SAS has filed another lawsuit against Sheeran based on its rights in Gaye's recording.

But the transition from school to work has been a "violent" one, she said.

Instead of having established support frameworks as provided in school, neurodiverse employees are suddenly thrust into an environment where they have to advocate for themselves and what they need — and it can be daunting.

Many neurodiverse employees thus cope by "masking" — suppressing symptoms in a bid to blend in, said Dr Loh.

One way to illustrate to supervisors the potential neurodiverse employees have is by bringing up examples of neurodiverse individuals known in wider society, said Dr Loh.
