List of international labor organizations
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Labor organizations, such as unions, support workers by advocating for their legal rights to a safe, equitable workplace and fair compensation. Localized labor organizations will form larger, international associations in order to influence governments and lawmakers to create protective legislation for workers.
