Ukrainian Government attacks workers’ rights and unions amidst EU candidacy – ETF and ITF call on the European Commission to compel Ukraine to recall laws depriving Ukrainian workers of their collective rights and social protection.

When Europe’s politicians and companies refuse to listen, and have no mindset to treat workers as human beings with the right to a decent life based on a decent job with fair pay and conditions… transport workers have no choice but to take strike action.

Led by trade unionists, 62 years ago, today, the people of Genoa, Italy drove the neo-fascist Italian party out of the city on 30 June 1960. Today, ETF, in partnership with other unions across Europe, is continuing the fight of our ancestors.

ETF, alongside its transport unions and transport workers from France, Switzerland, Croatia, Spain, Italy, Germany and Belgium took Lyon’s streets for Fair Transport.

The ETF stands by its UK unions and their present and future industrial actions.

As one of the fastest growing business models, most common in delivery and ride hailing in transport, platform work took centre stage at a dedicated session at ETF’s 6th Congress.
