  • Summary

  • Many people, whether working in the IR Field, HR, Business, Policy or Legal, won't have ever heard of, let alone encounter, a Global Union. But they do exist, and they have a lot of influence. And there is a very good chance that the Union you deal with or belong to, regardless of geography, will be affiliated to a Global Union.

    In this Episode of the IR Guru Podcast, we talk with Ron Oswald, ex General Secretary of the International Union of Food and Farm Workers (IUF) about what a Global Union does, how it does it, and why.

    Ron also talks us through his career path that started as working as a baggage handler at Heathrow Airport in London and ended as the General Secretary of the IUF.

    We also hear about some of the challenges that Ron feels are ahead, detail about some of the campaigning work he has been involved in and his work with multi-national employers to improve dialogue and the positive impact for many workers in Countries less developed than others.
