Platform workers are fighting for their rights – and the ITUC is backing them with the campaign Time to Deliver: Rights for All Platform Workers. We demand urgent action to stop exploitation, and to deliver fair wages, decent working conditions and the right to organise. The call for all platform workers to receive the same protections as all other workers will take centre stage at the International Labour Conference (ILC) in June, where we are pushing for a new ILO Convention and Recommendation to set global standards for fair treatment.
Join our fight here to ensure that platform workers – from care workers to couriers to content moderators – are no longer denied the rights they deserve.
Also at the ILC:
- The ITUC Global Rights Index 2025 will be launched, revealing the latest trends in workers’ rights violations worldwide. We will take a clear message to the governments and employers at the ILC: workers’ rights must be respected, and unions must be free to organise without fear.
- We aim to secure a strong and legally-binding standard on biological hazards.
As well as resistance, April is also a month of remembrance. This International Workers’ Memorial Day will focus on protecting workers' rights in the age of Artificial Intelligence (AI) because AI is too often being used to control and exploit workers rather than support them.
The 1 May – International Workers’ Day – it will be time to Take Back Democracy! While billionaires profit, workers face low wages and crumbling public services. How did they do it?
