"This is a substantial win for us, and we want to extend our deepest gratitude for your steadfast support during our recent labor dispute with Metrowear Two. Your solidarity played a vital role in helping us reach this resolution.

This victory is not just for our members—it’s a testament to what’s possible when workers and communities unite against injustice. We couldn’t have done it without your support, and we are proud to have stood shoulder to shoulder with you."

"Shawna Bader-Blau heads up the Solidarity Center in Washington DC which has for many years been one of the great sources of support for workers around the world trying create and sustain independent, democratic trade unions.  But with the inauguration of Donald Trump earlier this year, all that has come under threat.  In our interview, Shawna discusses what the Solidarity Center does, the new threats it has to face, and how it intends to fight back."

"The Canadian technology company Telus provides services to TikTok and other major corporations in its operations in Turkey. However, the workers in these "profitable" jobs are being crushed under low wages and psychologically exhausting working conditions. Performance targets are constantly rising, there is no job security, and arbitrary dismissals are taking place."

Panicha Kanyana and Anucha Chaipha were suspended from #YPCPrecision after their union #Thailand Autoparts and #MetalWorkers #Union (TAM) organized 400 workers in 2023. YPC transferred 38 unionists, refused them overtime. Trade unionists were threatened with temporary contracts and outsourced workers were brought in.

YPC stop #unionbusting, reinstate Panicha Kanyana with back pay, end discrimination against Anucha Chaipha.

Arthur Svensson International Prize for #TradeUnionRights

The prize is an international award established by Industri Energi (today IE&FLT). It is awarded annually by the “Committee for the Arthur Svensson International Prize for Trade Union Rights” in accordance with guidelines set in these statutes. The statutes can be amended by the National Board of IE&FLT with a 2/3 majority.

The prize amount is NOK 500,000 (approx. EUR 43.000 / USD 47.000). Half the amount goes directly to the prize winner and an equal amount will be spent on projects related to the prize winner. The money comes from the IE&FLT International Solidarity Fund and can be adjusted by the National Executive Committee in connection with the review of the federation’s budget.

The main purpose is to promote and strengthen trade unions and trade union rights internationally.

​Who are eligible for the prize?
The prize is presented to a person or organisation that has worked predominately to promote trade union rights and/or strengthen trade union organizing around the world.
