CONGRATULATIONS to the Solidarity Center's @ilawnetwork.bsky.social and labor unions in Colombia who are reshaping the country's labor law in real time. THIS is what happens when workers have the ability to participate in democratic processes ✊🏾 #Solidarity #WorkerRights #1u

Democracy was at risk in 2025 & workers had less ability to: ❌ gain fair wages ❌ ensure safe workplaces ❌ have a voice at work & in society Together with workers we can bring #democracy to life. In 2026, join us to ensure a better world for all workers! ✊🌍 #Solidarity #WorkerRights

The Solidarity Center congratulates the Sudanese journalists who not only showed the power of collective action as they deal with unsafe working conditions, but who are determined to ensure all people have access to free and fair information, a fundamental democratic freedom ✊🏾

Workers 🫱🏽‍🫲🏾 Democracy

THE ROAD TO RATIFICATION 🚗 The @ilo.org has adopted #C193 concerning Decent Work in the Platform Economy, but the journey for workers and their unions and organizations continues. Now, the ILO's member countries must ratify the convention and align its laws and practices with these new standards. 💥

So much to celebrate lately, because WHEN WE FIGHT, WE WIN ✊🏾 Seven years ago today, the @ilo.org adopted Convention 190 on Violence and Harassment in the World of Work, the first international treaty protecting all workers from gender-based violence and harassment in the workplace. #C190

Today we celebrate 15 years of International Labour Organization Convention 189 and congratulate our domestic worker trade union partners on their persistence, courage, and SUCCESS ✊🏾

IT'S OFFICIAL 🥳 After years of worker organizing and advocacy, the @ilo.org has just adopted Convention 193 on Decent Work in the Platform Economy. Congratulations to all of our trade union partners and global labor allies who have traveled this long road to a win! #ILC2026 #TimeToDeliver

Platform worker union leader Angelica Salgado shares her hopes for the @ilo.org convention on decent work in the platform economy. This convention has the potential to protect women doing app-based work around the world, who often work in precarious conditions for precarious wages. #ILC2026

This is why it's critical for worker voices to be in the room 👇🏽 Platform worker Sergio underscores the need for the @ilo.org convention on decent work in the platform economy to truly represent the interests of ALL workers, including those with a family to care for. #TimeToDeliver #ILC2026

Right now, our union partners are with others from the global labor movement at #ILC2026 to negotiate a new international labor standard for platform workers. We'll be there, amplifying worker voices as they bring their experiences and skills to the table.

Though platform workers have become a necessity for many people, they often lack basic necessities themselves. That's why workers like Lem from the Philippines are pushing for a strong standard on decent work in the platform economy at this year's International Labour Conference.

What is a platform worker? 🤔 #ILC2026 #Solidarity #WorkerRights

Here's what our Executive Director had to say about today's big news 📝

Today, the International Court of Justice made a historic ruling: according to the court, the right to strike is LEGALLY PROTECTED under @ilo.org's Convention 87 on Freedom of Assembly. This means that workers around the world will legally have the right to strike and make their voices heard 🗣️
