Venezuela

In Venezuela, the Solidarity Center works with a broad range of national labor centers and unaffiliated worker organizations so they can organize and represent workers, bargain collectively over working conditions and improve enforcement of fundamental labor rights for all workers.

The Solidarity Center works to help unions from all political tendencies overcome their divisions to jointly advocate and defend policies for increased protection of fundamental rights at the workplace and across industries.

In response to the massive flow of migrants to neighboring Brazil and Colombia in recent years, the Solidarity Center works with the Brazilian and Colombian labor movements to provide training on basic labor rights and legal assistance to Venezuelan migrants.
