Trade and investment

Free trade and investment can drive growth and development but should not come at the expense of domestic jobs and labour rights. Governments should ensure that open markets contribute to the creation of quality jobs and do not undermine workers’ bargaining power and fundamental rights.

TUAC is engaging with the OECD Investment, Steel and Trade Committees to achieve enforceable labour clauses in international trade and investment agreements, quality investment that contributes to local development, and adequate social and employment protection.

This work is led by Filip Stefanovic. For more information, please contact stefanovic@tuac.org.
