In the @the-independent.com, WaterAid’s Helen Hamilton reflects on safe care during her own childbirth:

“I’m forever grateful my baby and I got the hospital care we needed – mothers across Africa need our help.”

No woman’s life should depend on water access.

Drivers working on digital platforms around the world are often offered little to no benefits or protections on the job. Here's how workers in Thailand are fighting for those rights.

 #PlatformWorkers #TimeToDeliver #ILC

Healthcare & paid sick leave are just a few of the many benefits workers are typically denied when doing app-based work. #PlatformWorkers in Sri Lanka and millions more around the 🌍 are organizing together to fight for the protections they deserve ✊ #TimeToDeliver

Most drivers working on digital platforms are considered "independent contractors" instead of employees according to their country's labor laws. Employers often say this gives drivers more freedom, but in reality, it just leaves them without the protections all workers deserve. #TimeToDeliver

“There is no ‘off’ day for the driver,” says Enoch Gyaesayor, who works seven days a week driving passengers around Accra, Ghana hoping to make just 150 cedis ($14.64) a day. Read his story & learn how #platformworkers are organizing for #decent work ➡️ sclinks.co/4e4BMzt

Workers are managed by algorithms – rated, ranked, and punished without knowing why.

📢 The ITF is demanding an international Convention to regulate the use of algorithms: itfglobal.org/en/in-focus/...

#TimeToDeliver #Rights4Riders

Together with our partner the Moroccan Union of Labor, #platformworkers gathered for #MayDay2025 on their motorcycles, wearing their uniforms & carrying their delivery boxes, to send a strong message: All workers deserve decent work. Recognize us as employees! ✊
