An extended mandate for @EU_ELA is crucial. But in addition we need an independent budget for union-linked counselling-networks to both inform and support mobile & migrant workers. #fairmobility#ELA#unions https://t.co/8IyuJttgpT
Ein erweitertes Mandat der @EU_ELA ist wichtig. Aber zusätzlich benötigen wir ein eigenständiges EU-Budget für den Aufbau u. Unterhalt v. gewerkschaftsnahen Beratungsnetzwerken, um mobile Beschäftigte u. Arbeitsmigrant*innen zu informieren u. zu unterstützen.
