Home-based workers are workers too. Their labour supports families, communities, and supply chains, yet many remain invisible and unrecognized. Let's raise our voice for dignity, recognition, and fair opportunities.#HomeBasedWorkers

#CSW70 ๐ | Yesterday, at the @NGO_CSW_NY Forum, we brought together organizers and leaders from across the globe to advance justice for #HomeBasedWorkers
From Argentina to the Philippines, Vietnam to Uganda, one message was clear: when laws fail, workers organize.
Millions of #HomeBasedWorkers, mostly women, remain invisible & unprotected. Itโs time to recognize their labour, ensure rights, social security & dignity.

๐ซฑ๐พโ๐ซฒ๐ป Today, part of our #ILC2025 delegation met with our long-time allies from @ILOcoopSSE โ a key partner in advancing the #SocialSolidarityEconomy (SSE)!
The SSE is not just an economic model โ it's a lifeline for #HomeBasedWorkers, offering pathways to collective strength, recognition, and formalization. ๐โ๐ฝ
#ILOCOOP #Cooperatives #DecentWork #GlobalSolidarity
โ๏ธ Every morning here at #ILC2025 starts with our caucus meetings โ a space for reflection, strategy, and solidarity.
We gather with our allies from across the #InformalEconomy โ #DomesticWorkers, #WastePickers, #StreetVendors, #HomeBasedWorkers, and others โ to debrief, share updates, and align our priorities from the ongoing discussions on #Formalization and the #PlatformEconomy.

#HomeBasedWorkers are in the Platform Economy too. But these digital platforms treat home-based workers as entrepreneurs or artisans and do not recognise them as workers, while in reality they are workers who are employed by these platforms.
At #ILC2025, we demand that platform economy standards recognize all categories of workers, including self-employed home-based workers.
โ๐ฝ They deserve:
โ๏ธ Legal recognition and protection
โ๏ธ Access to digital tools and training
โ๏ธ The right to organize
#PlatformWorkers #DecentWork #WorkerRights #RecognitionNow @ilo
๐ฌ Too often, itโs seen as โnormalโ for women to work from home โ unpaid, unrecognized, and invisible. But these women are workers. And they must be seen. We need to fight for #DecentWages, #Rights, and #SocialProtection for #HomeBasedWorkers. But how do we get there?
It starts with recognition โ recognizing informal work as real work, and recognizing women in the informal economy as workers with the same rights as others. Legal recognition of informal work in our countries is essential if we are serious about building inclusive and fair labor systems. Only then can we move towards true gender justice and decent work for all. โ๐พ
