So proud of the work @uniglobalunion, @IndustriALL_GU and the brands have done together since 2013. Millions of factory workers now have safe workplaces and a voice on the job. Building on this we will continue our work with the @brandbgmea to sustain the work.

🚩BREAKING! From New Delhi to Montreal and beyond, thousands will take to the streets this #BlackFriday to #MakeAmazonPay for labour abuses, environmental degradation and threats to democracy. ✊Join Us! #MakeAmazonPay

BREAKING 🇵🇸 Moments ago, the Global Sumud Flotilla (@gbsumudflotilla) was violently intercepted by Israeli Occupation Forces. Hundreds of participants — including @davidrkadler, Co-General Coordinator of the @ProgIntl — are being abducted.

The Israeli government has seized vessels in the #SumudFlotilla. Peaceful activists bringing aid to Gaza have been captured. We demand their immediate release and safe delivery of humanitarian supplies. uniglobalunion.org/news/uni-stand…

🚨UPDATE: @AdalahEnglish is reporting that all #Handala crew members - including UNI colleague Hatem Aouini - are out of Israeli custody. We must ramp up pressure on world leaders to take urgent, decisive action to bring the suffering in #Gaza to an end.

Hoy estuve presente en la reunión del Comité Directivo Mundial de @uniglobalunion. Estamos presenciando una ofensiva global de las grandes corporaciones que buscan una desregulación total de nuestras economías. No sólo intentan arrasar con nuestros derechos laborales, sino también avanzar sobre la cultura, la educación, la salud y los derechos de las minorías. Desde el movimiento sindical argentino y mundial, junto a @uniglobalunion, vamos a seguir organizándonos y resistiendo esta embestida. No vamos a ceder frente a quienes quieren un mundo sin derechos ni justicia social.

🗓️ This 8 May, we #TakeBackDemocracy! 🗣️@luc_triangle says it clearly: “Billionaires are not just hoarding wealth — they are hijacking our democracies.” Behind far-right politics and collapsing public services is a coordinated billionaire coup — silencing dissent, crushing unions, and dividing workers. ✊ 80 years after defeating fascism, we demand bold action to dismantle billionaire power and build a new social contract for working people. 📢This is a fight for dignity, justice, and democracy. 🔗Find out more: ituc-csi.org/The-greatest-t… #TakeBackDemocracy #StopBillionaireCoup #8May

Today we stand with the @ituc in the call to take back democracy and stop the billionaire coup! uniglobalunion.org/news/take-back…

🚨 Amazon warehouse and delivery workers in India are enduring intense pressure and unsafe conditions while struggling to support themselves with insufficient pay, shows our survey with @AiwaInd ⬇️ #MakeAmazonPay 🔗uniglobalunion.org/news/amazon-in…

"Sharmita says that it is next to impossible for a woman to get sick leave. If she puts in a request for leave, the company either tells her to resign or piles so much pressure at the workplace that she resigns on her own." #MakeAmazonPay outlookindia.com/national/behin…

🇮🇳Neha, a 25-year-old Amazon warehouse worker in India, describes grueling working conditions during the #heatwave. "Amazon monitors our performance obsessively, & if we don’t meet our brutal hourly targets, we face punishment." @thewire_in #MakeAmazonPay thewire.in/labour/low-wag…
