Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 36568, member: 636"] Namibian labor groups want people to see Workers Day as more than just a holiday. The Nurses Union and Trade Union Congress spoke through their leader, Junias Shilunga, at a Lüderitz event. He stressed that making things should create many jobs rather than profits for a few wealthy people. Trade must help local workers and businesses instead of just foreign companies. Good working conditions need to become central to how the country grows. Shilunga pointed to fishing as an important business that often fails to properly protect its workers. He said safe jobs with fair pay in fishing should be standard for everyone. The union leader called on young Namibians to join the fight for better work rules. He encouraged them to become union members and learn what rights they have at work. Their fresh ideas could make the movement stronger for future generations. [/QUOTE]
