  • CIS Countries Change Their Approach to Women's Labor

    A roundtable discussion titled "Labor Protection for Women" was held at the CIS Headquarters with the support of the Advisory Council on Labor, Employment, and Social Protection of the Population of the CIS Member States.

    For trade unions, March 8 is not just a day of spring and renewal.

    For trade unions, March 8 is not merely a day of spring and renewal. Above all, it is an opportunity to once again reflect on the role of women in the world of work and in global development as a whole. Today, women perform 55% of the world’s total labor. They work longer hours than men—by 6 to 13 hours per week—and still earn less: on average, women’s wages amount to 66–84% of men’s wages, depending on the country. There is objective evidence that the more a country values women’s labor and the smaller the gender pay gap, the more developed its economy. A special issue is the “invisibility” of women’s domestic and, as experts call it, reproductive labor. This is why trade unions should continue to fight for justice for working women.

    I congratulate all women of the CIS, my colleagues in the parliamentary corps, and women in trade unions on International Women’s Day. I wish you justice, decent work, success, and prosperity!
