Online harassment is one more form of violence #16daysofactivism

This #IDAHOBIT let's continue to work for the rights of all workers to a better life, where their rights, their needs and their voices are heard. #LGBTI rights are human rights and human rights are workers rights. Let's continue to fight together!

From #Maputo and across the entire UNIAfrica, building a stronger and more inclusive union movement that truly places women at its ❤️@uniequal @uniglobalunion @uni_youth 6th UNI Africa Women's Conference

6th UNI Africa Women’s Conference unites to consolidate power and demand change uniglobalunion.org/news/6th-uni-a…

So fruitful meeting! 30 participants from 20 different countries working on the @uni_equal women’s strategic priorities. 7/8 April #Marrakech @uniglobalunion @UNI_Europa @uni_youth @uniamericas @uniapro

Renate Wapenhensch from @IGBAU (Germany) : “Current studies show that women in part-time positions work just as effectively as their full-time colleagues. Yes, but women are still underrepresented in management positions.”

Halla Gunnarsdóttir from VR (Iceland): “In Iceland, we certainly are witnessing timely revolution of women's representation. Women have been elected to hold most key offices in the country, even the Bishop, and most recently, the leader of Iceland's largest union: me.”

Carol Scheffer, who was re-elected in her role as President of UNI Europa Women’s Committee, wrapped up the day: “Sisters, stand strong. Stand proud. Stand together for collective women’s voices, and together we will succeed.”

Claire Moore, Equality and Social Affairs Officer @irishcongress: “We reject the hateful rhetoric of the far right, and we stand against misogyny. We will defend the rights of women across the world to have equal, fair, decent and safe lives.”

Gerald Dwyer, President of @uniglobalunion addressing @UNI_Europa conference in Belfast today: “We advocate for fair policies. We must engage & show leadership. Collective bargaining is more critical than ever.” #RealSayMorePay

@fgtaFO .@veronicauni, Head of Equal Opportunities @uniglobalunion: “Mental health is a fundamental right and should be included in occupational health and safety as mental well-being is just as vital as physical safety in the workplace.”

The physical 💪🏽and psychological 🧠wellbeing of workers is a fundamental right and an essential part of our work as trade unions. We must ensure guidelines and policies that protect them and create safe working environments for all. #RealSayMorePay
