Meet the ITF young workers’ committee
“Trade unionists should ask young people what they need from the union and find out what our main problems are. We suffer from working in positions that are precarious, just as women and migrant workers do. If we’re not unionised, we won’t have the power to change our poor working conditions...”
Fátima Aguado Queipo, CC.OO, Spain
