General Secretary of European Trade Union Confederation posting about work and life in general.
Too many workers in Europe do the same work but for very different pay. Today in Gdansk Im hearing evidence that the east - west pay gap still isnt getting better. It’s time for the EU to back our demands for upward wage convergence because equal work deserves equal pay, everywhere!

Highlight of the day. Discussing strategies for an alternative EU where all workers are free from fear of tomorrow. Our plan - all jobs must be quality jobs! With friends from Europa Nova.

Good to meet with courageous trade union women from Ukraine and Belarus, their strength and commitment to justice and rights stands out. Trade unionism isn't a crime.

Cultural workers and artists are essential, they challenge the status quo and they need to be supported and their benefits protected not attacked #stoparizona

Trade union murals are our working class art, celebrating our history,values and our ambitions. Today I visited the @uni-europa.bsky.social mural in progress beside the @nic-ictu.bsky.social office in Belfast.

Just spoke at the ministerial conference on "The future of work in digital Europe" in Gdańsk.

I called for a directive on AI in the workplace that ensures:
🚀 workers feel the benefits
📹 privacy is respected
🤝 management & workers agree
😮‍💨 stress at work is reduced
🙋‍♀️ humans are in control
