Platform workers around the world are demanding what every worker deserves: safety, fair pay, transparency, and dignity on the job.
As global leaders meet to shape a new international treaty on platform work, drivers and delivery workers are making sure their voices are heard. The future of work must include rights for all workers — online and off.

🌍 Today is International #HumanRightsDay.
For Lee Cheuk-yan, it's Day 1,699 behind bars. 🕯️
Lee is a courageous labour leader imprisoned since April 2021 for organising peaceful pro-democracy protests in 🇭🇰 Hong Kong.
Now, he faces unjust charges of "inciting subversion of state power" — carrying a sentence of up to 10 years. ⚖️ His trial is set for 22 Jan 2026.
Before his sentencing, Lee said:
🗣️"I am proud I can walk with the people of Hong Kong on the road to democracy. We will walk together even in darkness with hope in our heart."
Today, let’s remind him — and the world — he’s not alone. ✊
Raise your voice for justice, for democracy, for Lee.

🚨 The ITUC condemns the violent Israeli raid on the offices of the Palestinian General Federation of Trade Unions (PGFTU) in Nablus, Occupied West Bank.
🗣️“Trade unions are a force for peace, dialogue, and negotiation. They are not military targets.” @luc_triangle
This assault is a violation of international law and the fundamental right to freedom of association.
The ITUC calls for:
🔍 An independent, transparent investigation
⚖️ Full accountability for those responsible
✊ Full solidarity with Palestinian workers and the PGFTU
Peace is not built through violence — but through justice, rights, and respect for international law.

Proposals before the European Parliament would undermine corporate accountability & threaten workers' rights globally.
The Omnibus I proposal from Rapporteur Warbon (EPP) would prioritise corporate profits over human rights.
We are urging all Irish MEPs to oppose it.
🌍✊ The ITUC joins global voices in concern for the safety of participants — including trade unionists — in the Global Sumud Flotilla, a civil society mission bringing humanitarian aid to civilians in Gaza.
