The APFUTU- Food, Agricultural, Hotel, Restaurant,
Catering, Tobacco and Allied Workers' Associations (APFUTU-F)
is an national union representing workers employed in
- agriculture and plantations
- the preparation and manufacture of food and beverages
- hotels, restaurants and catering services
- all stages of tobacco processing
This principle is implemented through:
- building solidarity at every stage of the food wokers
- global action to defend human, democratic, and trade union
rights
Strengthening
The APFUTU-F exists to strengthen member unions
through mutual support
It does this through:
- coordinating and implementing solidarity and support actions:
- sector-wide organizing
- promoting women's equality at the workplace, in society
and in the trade union movement
Defending Human, Democratic and Trade Union Rights
For the APFUTU-F, the active defense of trade union,
human and democratic rights is not an adjunct to our industrial
work but an essential part of our ongoing activity. For the trade
union movement, defending these rights is a fundamental class
issue for the simple reason that workers can not organize in defense
of their interests, nor maintain the gains they have achieved,
in an anti-democratic environment.
The APFUTU-F gives active support to movements
everywhere struggling against oppression. We respond internationally
to every attack on our affiliates and on the labour movement.
We are committed to building alliances with human rights, environmental,
consumer and other organizations in civil society who share our
objectives. |
