🔴'Crippling our economies will have consequences for the whole of the EU'

An open letter to MEPs from the leaders of Belgian, French, Italian and Spanish trade unions ahead of tomorrow's European Parliament vote on new austerity rules etuc.org/en/pressreleas…

I’m taking the liberty of giving some advice to Charles Michel. Competiveness needs to be built on quality jobs and investment and not a tired deregulation agenda based on pressure to lower pay and working conditions.

Yesterday at the European Left panel with Jeremy Corbyn we agree on the need to do more to achieve climate targets, and to do so, we need PUBLIC INVESTMENT, JUST TRANSITION, and TAXING THE RICH!
EUROPEAN TRADE UNIONS Marc Botenga

If Euractiv had contacted me, I'd have told them that ETUC calls for investment, not a deregulation agenda and we fully support the Due Diligence Directive euractiv.com/section/econom…

My piece on Social Europe on the major win that the Platform Work Directive represents for workers and trade unions, and its challenges for implementation.

EUROPEAN TRADE UNIONS ETUC Youth

Yesterday, EUROPEAN TRADE UNIONS Executive Committee rejected🙅 the new economic governance rules.
The reform fails to deliver a balanced framework aimed at social progress and well-being. The reform will depress investments, harms social cohesion, and it lacks a vision for a fairer EU

Workers' rights were never given.
We fought for them.
And today we must keep up the fight.
Collectively.

Unpaid traineeships mean young people from working class backgrounds are locked out of many careers

Young workers need certainty that the directive on traineeships proposed today by the European Commission will effectively ban unpaid internships

Many improvements are needed to ensure no space is left for misinterpretations that would leave the most vulnerable at risk of exploitation.

The Directive must #BanUnpaidInternships

Young workers are taking a stand.

By building workers’ power from the workplace to the EU level, they are putting defeatist myths on mute.

Be the change. Join a union.

Another step closer to the historic EU law to protect 30M platform workers.

Today, EMPL Committee Press confirmed the deal that will ensure dignity to all workers in the digital era & protect 🇪🇺 social model and economy.

We delivered. Europe is the pioneer in global labour law.

No way, we won' pay!

👉Tax the dividends and profits, end tax dodging!

🎊🎉 Millions of people are set to receive sick pay, paid leave and much more following the adoption of the #PlatformWork directive today by EU member states.

'We are proud of all those workers who organised and their trade unions who delivered this massive win.'

We won. The Platform Work Directive is adopted by EU Council. Was high time. Now it’s urgent to deliver and implement it to get workers their rights. This has been an incredible fight of the trade union movement over the last 4 years. So proud of all of us 💪 EUROPEAN TRADE UNIONS

Prime Minister Kaja Kallas🇪🇪, if you continue to oppose this directive, you will fuel the idea that the EU is for lobbies.

If you decide to support this directive we will for once be able to demonstrate that the EU can improve lives
