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. 🔗 Learn more: buff.ly/gpuBxYz @SolidarityCntr #TimeToDeliver #PlatformWorkers #RightsForAll #FightForDemocracy

Joni Mitchell singing 'Coyote' with Bob Dylan and Roger McGuinn at Gordon Lightfoot's Toronto home in December, 1975. Just beautiful.

On #InternationalMigrantsDay 2025, the ITUC reaffirms: ✊ Rights-based migration governance is key to social justice and democracy. 🗣️ “Migrants are not a threat. They are workers, families, and members of our communities. When human rights are denied because of one’s migration status, democracy itself is weakened for all.” – @luc_triangle, ITUC General Secretary 🔗 ituc-csi.org/international-m… #MigrantsDay #FairRecruitment #ForDemocracy #MigrantRights

🌍 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. 🔗 ituc-csi.org/international-h… #FreeLeeCheukYan #hongkong

Weakening the #CSDDD helps no one except irresponsible companies. @SeanKellyMEP @MariaWalshEU @ReginaDo @ninacarberry: Don’t vote with the far right. Support a future-proof and fair Europe where human and workers’ rights and sustainability are non-negotiable. #OmnibusVote.

🚨 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. 🔗 ituc-csi.org/Palestine-ITUC-… #Palestine #LabourRights #HumanRights #Solidarity #TradeUnionsForPeace #ForDemocracy @PGFTU2 @ArabTradeUnion

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.
