24 April, 2009Today, both the opportunity and the need for international solidarity action have increased dramatically.
Through our solidarity work, the International Metalworkers' Federation responds to rights violations immediately and effectively and fights for human and trade union rights by exposing governments and companies that exploit workers and violate international labour standards. In cooperation with global labour bodies and our affiliates, the IMF is improving workers' rights and conditions by launching solidarity campaigns to reduce precarious work, end union repression, raise health and safety standards, and fight legislative initiatives which seek to undermine unions and their members.
