UKRAINE WORKERS: WARTIME DIARIES
WHY WE’RE DIFFERENT
We are the largest U.S.-based international worker rights organization partnering directly with workers and their unions, and supporting their struggle for respect, fair wages, better workplaces and a voice in the global economy.
We value the dignity of work and workers. We know how all the work everyone depends on gets done–who picks the food for your table, cleans your home so you can go to the office, makes your clothes, keeps your streets clean. And at our core is every worker’s right to solve issues through collective action and to form unions.

Cambodia’s Killer Commute
Local labor law does not regulate the company-provided trucks and vans used to transport garment workers, but the vehicles are not a safe option to get to work, said Dave Welsh, Solidarity Center Cambodia country director. However, “if they don’t get into the trucks, they don’t get to work and they don’t get paid.”
Apparel Industry Profiteers Must Fund Relief for Free Trade Refugees (opinion)
In the works is a radical overhaul of labor laws, which will redefine the lives of more than six million impoverished migrant workers. “The conditions [in Malaysia] are appalling,” said the Solidarity Center’s Dave Welsh. “If even a modicum of what trade unions put forward is enacted into law, this is a huge game changer.”
