ALL Women

All workers should enjoy equal rights. Yet female and young workers remain subject to discrimination resulting in many being denied their fundamental rights. IndustriALL fights their discrimination at work by promoting their fairer and stronger participation in trade unions.

#NoExcuse campaign

In November 2023, IndustriALL Global Union's Executive Committee endorsed a new policy on gender-based violence and harassment (GBVH), misogyny and sexism. This initiative reflects the commitment, as stated in IndustriALL’s 2021 Congress, to uphold a zero-tolerance stance on GBVH and any violation of human and women's rights within its operations and associated activities.

The policy aims to cultivate a culture of dignity and respect within IndustriALL and its affiliates, emphasizing the importance of eradicating GBVH, misogyny, and sexism. It focuses on educating and raising awareness about these issues, aligning with the provisions of the International Labour Organization (ILO) Convention 190. It also establishes clear procedures for addressing complaints related to sexual harassment, misogyny, and sexism that occur in connection with IndustriALL activities.

ILO Convention 190

IndustriALL is campaigning for the ratification of ILO Convention 190 on violence and harassment in the world of work. As unions we have an important role to play to make sure that this Convention is ratified and incorporated into national legislation.

Together with other global unions, we have developed materials for our affiliates to use to raise awareness.
