UNI unites unions in 150 countries to help service workers build power through organizing & collective bargaining.

We are workers in retail, banking, post, care, media, sport, printing, tech & telecoms, gaming, property services.

Repost not endorsement
We'll be at #WEF26 warning of converging crises: AI-driven job displacement and rising techno-authoritarianism.

Governments and employers are unprepared, workers lack a voice and power is concentrating fast. “Wait and see” means letting inequality win.

#AI is threatening jobs.
#TechnoAuthoritarians are threatening our democracies.

At #WEF26, we demand that workers have a say in a global order facing disruption.
