Amazon's response to a New York City bill that could protect Amazon drivers is to threaten the city with the prospect of jobs loss and slower, more expensive deliveries. The trillion dollar company says the proposal from the city council and Zohran Mamdani could put over 5,000 delivery jobs at risk, a thinly veiled threat that Amazon will respond to attempts to protect delivery drivers by cutting jobs.

The EU has a historic opportunity to improve workers’ livelihoods by setting an example in how it chooses to spend public money.

@ORoethig urges @steph_sejourne and @EU_Commission to follow Australia's and Scotland's examples for the EU Procurement Act.

Hundreds of workers in commerce, tech and finance protested outside Romania's Ministry of Labour on 25 August.

Their demands: unblock sectoral collective bargaining and raise the minimum wage from 1 January 2027.

Blocked bargaining leaves the minimum wage as the only benchmark for pay.

📢 UNI condemns abhorrent Russian attack on Ukrainian shopping centre 🇺🇦

UNI Global Union stands in unwavering solidarity with Ukrainian workers and trade unions in the retail sector following the recent devastating Russian attack against a shopping mall.
We unreservedly condemn this atrocity.

Russian drones targeted a busy shopping mall in Kryvyi Rih, central Ukraine, on Friday 21 August. Ukrainian emergency services reported that the attack killed 16 people and wounded 130 others, 23 of them children. A second drone strike about half an hour after the first was clearly targeted at emergency responders rushing to help the victims.

“This was an abhorrent attack designed to maximize civilian casualties. Russia’s deliberate targeting of workers, shoppers and emergency services is a flagrant violation of international norms and an affront to humanity,” said Christy Hoffman, General Secretary of UNI Global Union.

“The suffering endured by the people of Ukraine is a stark reminder of the urgent need for a just resolution of this war."

Workers and their families on all sides continue to bear the costs of war through death, displacement and the destruction of their homes, workplaces, livelihoods and communities.

UNI, together with the entire global trade union movement reiterates our call for peace, the restoration of Ukraine’s sovereignty and assurances that future reconstruction will take place in full alignment with respect for workers’ rights.

Bank workers at BRD – Groupe Societe Generale, one of Romania’s largest banks, will hold a two-hour warning strike on 13 August after overwhelmingly voting to reject a new contract that slashes existing protections and benefits.

Negotiations for a new company-wide collective agreement between BRD and IMPACT Union – affiliated to UNI through Romanian federation FSIF – broke down after the bank unilaterally proposed a new contract which would strip away or water down benefits, including protections against dismissal, meal and holiday vouchers, loyalty bonuses, pension contributions, transport reimbursement and family-related benefits, as well as adequate pay rises for staff on the lowest wages.

"Our members are not asking for privileges," says IMPACT Union president Razvan Carstoiu. "They are asking BRD to preserve rights already negotiated."
