Unions can help end the violence.
“Not in my union, not in my workplace,” is the challenge global Union is issuing a challenge to affiliated trade unions to take the pledge and commit to taking action to stop violence against women. IndustriALL has launched a new video to mark the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women on 25 November.
Violence against women remains one of the most tolerated violations of human rights and trade unions says IndustriALL have a responsibility to defend and promote women’s rights.
“IndustriALL is committed to eradicating violence against women, with support from IndustriALL trade unions around the world,” said IndustriALL’s assistant general secretary, Jenny Holdcroft. “We urge all our trade unions to take the pledge and call for an end to violence in unions and at work.”
