A WORLD union body said today that workers rights are crumbling under mounting attacks from employers.
The International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) Global Rights Index for 2024 identifies continuing growing attacks on trade unionists and unions as well attacks on democratic values.
It says the 10 worst countries for trades unions are Bangladesh, Belarus, (with 42 union officials still in jail), Ecuador, Egypt, Eswatini, Guatemala, Myanmar, the Philippines, Tunisia and Turkey.
