2/3 No algorithm should decide whether someone can work, earn an income, or be hired. IDWF's delegations at #ILC2025 and #ILC2026 worked tirelessly to ensure domestic workers and workers in the informal economy were visible and not left behind in these historic negotiations. โœŠ๐Ÿฟ

3/3 The adoption of a Convention is only the beginning. Ratification and implementation are the next battles. We will keep organizing, advocating, and holding governments accountable until this historic victory becomes a reality for workers everywhere. #ILC2026 #PlatformWork

To achieve #GenderEquality at work, governments must effectively tackle informality and ensure access to social protection for all workers, regardless of employment status. It is time to turn commitments into action. โœŠ๐Ÿฟ

๐Ÿ”ต #ILC2026 / In the #PlatformEconomy, #DomesticWorkers take all the risks, while digital labor platforms make massive profits. We're here to urge Member States to adopt a robust ILO Convention that ensures tech progress does not come at the expense of workersโ€™ rights. โœŠ๐Ÿฟ

๐Ÿ”ต #ILC2026 / We are facing a global context marked by the rise of authoritarianism, democratic rollbacks, and a deliberate weakening of trade unions. The path toward social justice for workers is clear: organize, unite, and transform systems together. โœŠ๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ

Together with over 30 worker organizations, trade unions, and civil society groups, we call on the @ILO to protect the rights of millions of workers globally by establishing robust international labor standards for the platform economy. #ILC2026 buff.ly/ekjmYoV

These standards must apply to ALL platform workers, regardless of employment status. They cannot roll back existing fundamental rights at work. Instead, they must reinforce those rights while advancing new protections that reflect the realities of platform-mediated labor.

This year is especially significant as we also celebrate 15 years of ILO Convention 189, a landmark achievement that transformed the recognition and rights of domestic workers around the world.

Domestic workers are not on the margins of these debates, we are at the center of the transformations reshaping the world of work. Nothing about us without us!

As the @ilo advances discussions on #GenderEquality in the world of work at #ILC2026, #DomesticWorkers must be part of the conversation. โœŠ๐Ÿฟ Gender equality and #DecentWork cannot be achieved while domestic workers remain invisible and undervalued.
