Economic policy
TUAC represents the voice of labour in the international economic policy debate. Through its engagement at the OECD, TUAC fights for economic policies that create full employment and that give working people a fair share of the wealth they create.
This is done through our engagement on fiscal and monetary policy at the Economic Policy Committee and its Working Party on Macroeconomic and Structural Policy Analysis.
This work is led by Filip Stefanovic and Adnan Habibija. For more information, please contact stefanovic@tuac.org and habibija@tuac.org.
