Through the Labour Mobility Package and the Quality Jobs Roadmap, I am personally committed to preventing abuse, while enabling subcontracting where it supports expertise and innovation. #SocialEurope (2/2)

Marissa's story is a powerful reminder of how collective strength in organising #DomesticWorkers can transform lives. After escaping an abusive employer, she turned to @unitetheunion, asking, "Can a union help me?" Now, Unite created an entire branch for domestic workers, giving them a voice and collective power. What a win! #EFFAT congratulates this incredible achievement!
“I was walking with no direction, ­traumatised and I found myself there, I looked up at Unite and thought, ‘Can a union help me?’” After escaping an abusive employer, Marissa set up @thevoiceofdws, a support network and campaign organisation to support domestic workers across the UK. Now, in a historic move, they have formed a Domestic Workers Branch in our union 👏

#SocialConditionality and competitiveness must go hand in hand. Fully in line with @EnricoLetta's intervention today before the @Europarl_EN, where he emphasized the importance of this balance addressing the #PublicProcurement Directive.
“There has not to be a contradiction between social rights, solidarity, cohesion and competitiveness.” In the European Parliament, former Italian Prime Minister @EnricoLetta made the case for a revision of the EU’s public procurement rules with strong social conditionality.
