Risk to worker mapping, ITUC 2019 report

In July 2019, the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) published its Global Rights Index. This is an annual global survey of violations of trade union rights. It ranks 145 countries and depicts the world’s worst countries for workers, based on their degree of respect for workers’ rights. This briefing summaries the key takeaways on risk to workers’ rights to freedom of association, collective bargaining and worker representation.
