Palestine International Friends Alliance (PIFA) Statement on Labor Day
“To all workers worldwide, whose labor builds nations and shapes futures, we extend our heartfelt greetings and solidarity on this Labor Day. We call upon you to join us in supporting the Palestinian workers, who tirelessly strive for their human and labor rights amidsبيان يوم العمالt occupation and economic hardships.
We stand in solidarity with the just demands of Palestinian workers, including:
1. The fundamental right to dignified and equitable work, free from discrimination or exploitation.
2. The immediate end to the Israeli occupation and apartheid regime, which restrict their freedoms and hinder their professional opportunities.
3. Their right to organize and join unions and labor associations without fear of reprisal.
4. The lifting of the economic and financial blockade that disproportionately affects the Palestinian population, undermining their working conditions and daily lives.
We urge the international community to take collective action to uphold these demands and safeguard the rights of Palestinian workers. Governments, international organizations, and labor unions must redouble their efforts to advance these objectives.
We call upon all workers and peoples of the world to stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people, their workers, and their national struggle for freedom, justice, equality, and human dignity, and for the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with its capital in Jerusalem.”
