Expecting and nursing mothers require social protection but workers in the informal economy are often not covered. Maternity protection has been a primary concern of the ILO since its creation in 1919. Workplace support for mothers who are breastfeeding has been a basic provision of maternity protection.
The Philippines expanded maternity leave benefits in 2019 to align with international labour standards. The ILO also promoted exclusive breastfeeding in the workplace to advance women’s rights to maternity protection and to improve nutrition security for Filipino children.

Soon after taking this photo half a dozen more railway workers poped there heads up and stared at me. Then some guy came and started telling me i needed permission to take photo's there. I am only a teenager, and wasn't expecting this, so he was a bit intimidating. I knew i was allowed to take photos, but this guy didn't look happy and was huge, so i just tried to worm my way out of it by acting as if i didn't know i wasn't allowed to. He soon left and then so did I. I wish I had taken photos of them (they were all staring at me like i had just commited a crime), but it was low light. This photo was taken with at about 75mm and a shutter speed of 1/15 of a second.
Not strictly a Finsec event, but here's a few photos of the Service and Food Workers' Union Nga Ringa Tota rally in Wellington on International Cleaners Day.
The 'Fair Deal for Cleaners' campaign that this rally is part of aims to provide a voice to the low-waged largely immigrant female workforce, in cities across Australia and New Zealand, who are calling on big property owners to support decency in their workplaces.
The day time temperatures in Bahrain can reach as high as 50 Deg. Celcius. A recent law/decree was passed by the Bahraini government to protect the health of these workers who start duty as early as 7am. The decree states that all construction activity should be suspended between 1pm to 4pm. Though the last date of implementation of the law was the 31st August, the temperatures haven't lowered.
Stiff resistance to compliance of the law/decree has been from the construction companies that employ these workers, their claim is that it affects productivity and they are incurring losses.
The strange aspect about the business culture here is that the value of human life is negligible as opposed to profit making. Human life is expendable.
A flyer from the New York/New Jersey United Workers Organization lays out the case against cutting unemployment benefits and calls for a march on Washington.
The demonstration sponsored by the Unemployed Workers Organizing Committee attracted 1,000 unemployed to march from All Souls Church at 16th & Harvard Streets NW, down 18th St to the White House on March 5, 1977 to demand “no cuts in unemployment benefits.”
Jimmy Carter had just taken office as President and the unemployment rate was hovering around 9%. Carter proposed to cut 13 weeks of unemployment benefits and make another 13 weeks conditional those out of work accepting any job—including minimum wage jobs.
Marchers carried a letter to Carter that said in part, “Why do you represent the interests of the moneyed class while claiming to speak on our behalf?” The demonstration was organized by the Unemployed Workers Organizing Committee (UWOC) which had chapters in 33 cities at the time.
The United Workers Organization and UWOC were organized by the Revolutionary Communist Party, a group was formed as the protest movement of the 1960s and early 1970s began to ebb. The RCP grew out of the Revolutionary Union and upheld Marxism-Leninism-Mao Zedong Thought at its 1975 founding.

An anonymous worker testifies to the fear and intimidation organized workers face on the job at a hearing organized by the Milwaukee County Labor Council. The screen was used to protect the identities of workers who were concerned that speaking out could cost them their jobs. This worker was a pilot who told a story about a lifetime pilot for the "hometown" airline who experienced a hostile atmosphere for organizing. The pilot was eventually fired, but thanks to a fight by the pilot's union he was able to get his job back and is still flying today.

Mexican farm worker portrait
I made this portrait in the fields where this man and his fellow workers were hand picking corn.
I was shooting a video to document local farms and where the food comes from. I’m having a great deal of fun, waking up
early to drive over to a farm and watch the sun rise while the workers go about their business of putting food on our tables.
The visuals are stunning and the sounds of the birds, the workers and everything in nature makes for a pleasant start of the day.
Keep your eyes peeled for the video
