The Workers' Group of @eesc.bsky.social is composed of representatives from national trade unions, confederations, and sectoral federations, bringing together members from over 80 trade union organisations.
1 in 3 women in the EU have experienced physical violence, sexual violence or threats.

On the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, we demand safety, justice and dignity for every woman.

Today, we call for action.
Tomorrow, we make it happen.

In-work poverty sharply increased during the crisis, and after almost twenty years, it is only slightly lower than it was in 2008.

On #EndPovertyDay, we call on EU Member States to fully implement the European Pillar of Social Rights!

European workers are not all on equal time.
Some clock hundreds more hours a year than others, often for less pay.

Time to deliver work-life balance for all European workers .

It is our workers' rights, our social, environmental and customer protection, our affordable healthcare, that #Trump considers a #tariff to be eliminated. Are Europeans willing to do that? If the answer is no, then we need a change of strategy.

🔴 Spending 5 % of GDP on defence? For countries like Spain & Italy, that’s 70–80 % of their entire healthcare budgets.

Security needs a plan, not a sticker price. Let's defend Europe without gutting the welfare state.

Across the EU, more workers are being let go through a screen, but is it legal? 🤔

From Finland to Estonia, @eurofound.europa.eu looks at how digital dismissals are handled in national laws.
