*From *http://links.org.au/node/1650 * * *All over the world workers are organising ... * *We are organising to demand a living wage.* For health and safety at work. For compensation and rehabilitation. For the rights of migrant workers and refugees, for citizenship rights for migrant workers and their families. For the right to employment on equal terms. Workers are organising against deportations, against racism, against discrimination. Workers are organising against wars that are a disaster to millions of workers. *Workers are organising for secure jobs. *Against casualisation, contracting out and outsourcing. Workers are organising for the rights of women workers. For better working conditions, to stop work becoming harder, faster, more stressful and dangerous. For shorter working hours, for paid leave and paid holidays. For affordable housing and health care. For free education and welfare, against child labour and poverty and inequality. Workers are organising for the rights of Indigenous communities who have been stripped of their land and resources. Workers are organising to fight discrimination against minorities, women, lesbians and gays. *While we struggle against these problems,* we see that our planet is being ruined through reckless, wasteful and unsustainable production for proft. *Workers can fix these problems.* Workers can reorganise all industry to produce for peoples' need instead of proft. Resources can be distributed to people and places who need them so that our children will have a future. *To do this workers have to dismantle imperialism and the capitalist system.* We need to make decisions together in our own workplaces, unions and political organisations about the way production and sharing need to be restructured. We need this. We have the numbers. We control production. Capitalists will be defeated. Read in /bahasa/ <http://links.org.au/node/1653>.
