We are ITF. We're Moving the World Forward #ITFCongress2024
Cabin crew, pilots and ground staff at Turkish Airways, members of Hava-is, have spent the week with ITF and ETF building capacity to make their workplace safer.
We are committed to working with Hava-is to build union density and capacity in the Turkish aviation sector.
✈️ Aviation workers must have a seat at the table as governments move towards a new South American 'single sky'.
Unions warn that moving ahead without strong safeguards could put safety standards, fair competition and workers’ rights at risk.👇

We stand in solidarity with French rail workers today as they rally in Saint-Denis. SNCF offered just a 0.18% pay increase – while posting €1bn+ profits.
Workers deserve a fair share ✊ Solidarité!

Every year, £6 BILLION is taken out of our public services in outsourcing profits.
That's money for NHS nurses, care workers, free school meals and council homes.
It's time for @andyburnham and the Government to end the outsourcing scam.

🇧🇷 A win for workers and democracy! A win built in workplaces, in communities and on the streets.
The re-election of President Lula is a monumental moment for Brazil and the global trade union world.
Solidarity! ✊

Workers are being pushed out of the aviation industry, while the abuse is also taking a toll on workers’ mental health.
Abuse should never be considered ‘part of the job’ but for too many airport and aviation workers, verbal abuse, intimidation, aggression and violence are a regular reality at work.
From ground handlers and passenger service assistants to security staff and cabin crew, everyone working to keep our airports and airlines running deserves to feel safe from the airport to the aircraft 📣
That’s why we’re calling for a unionised, worker-led approach to tackling abusive and disruptive passenger behaviour and protecting aviation workers.
