Dangerous complacency over global economy

28 Jan '08
2 min read

“The 'golden era' of globalization has made a lucky circle very rich indeed, but most people are missing out on the benefits. When workers get a fair share of the pie, economies work better because they have the purchasing power to simulate growth. The world desperately needs politicians to show the courage to make this happen”, said Philip Jennings, General Secretary of UNI Global Union.

Another key message from the unions at Davos is the pressing need to invest in “green jobs”, with the twin aims of tackling climate change and creating high quality employment. The ITUC is working with the United Nations Environment Programme and the International Labour Organisation on an ambitious agenda to achieve this.
