Transport workers from ITF (International Transport Workers’ Federation)-affiliated unions around the world are marking International Women’s Day (IWD) today.
Unions have been sharing their success stories in the run up to the day and will continue to highlight their experiences, campaigns and wins for women workers on social media – look out for @ITFglobal @ITFglobalunion #ITFwomen – and on the ITF IWD campaign pages at www.8march2016.org
ITF women transport workers’ assistant coordinator Jodi Evans said: “8th March is a great opportunity for unions to promote their wins on workplace issues for women transport workers, the progress they’re making in improving gender balance in the workplace and the ways they are increasing the visibility of women in their unions.”
