Happy Labour Day!

Labour Day

On #MayDay, we honour the hands and hearts of #MigrantWorkers, whose labours aren’t always just. Those working in farms often face unfair practices in the workplace like working without pay or being placed in living accommodations without heating. Carers and nurses often take on the invisible toll of caring for their families while looking after the needs of others. And of course, being employed from the great distance of another country results in the emotional labours of cultural assimilation as well — on top of the labours of being the family’s breadwinner.

And so we strive for the improvement and the enactment of migrants’ rights, today and every day, until all labour is recognised as such. Happy #LabourDay to all! ✊
