ETUC Position: Proposal for a Council Recommendation on access to social protection for workers and the self-employed
Adopted at the Executive Committee Meeting of 12 April 2018
28th April is the annual day of remembrance and action for workers killed, disabled and injured by their work. It serves as a timely reminder to workers across the world that they are not alone, that others have suffered at work and have been engaged in a long struggle to improve conditions in the workplace. It is also a time to reflect on how far we still have to go and the steps we must take to protect the lives of future generations of workers.
ETUC urges the Danish public employers to ensure unrestricted collective bargaining and withdraw threat of lockout.
Dear Colleagues,
The ETUC supports your demands and struggle to win fair wage growth in the public sector, reflecting the wage development in the private sector. We also support your call for a collective agreement to regulate the teachers working hours.
