LRD report for EPSU on union response to migrant workers

A new report by the LRD for the European Federation of Public Service Unions (EPSU) was published recently.

It examines the challenges of migration and how unions are responding. It particularly focuses on unions with members in local and regional government and national and European administrations.

Based on a survey of EPSU affiliates and with responses from 39 organisations in 23 states, it covers such areas as recruiting migrant workers and involving them in the union, and services unions provide to migrant workers. The full report is available from EPSU at www.epsu.org/a/6468
