In this episode we talk with Ludovic Voet, Confederal Secretary of the European Trade Union Confederation (www.etuc.org) about the overlooked theme in this current health crisis, which is the migration and refugee crisis and the role trade unions in Europe are playing.  All migrant workers, and particularly the undocumented, are among the least protected. This was true before the crisis, but the health and economic crisis, has acerbated inequalities. We’ve seen some positive reactions to protect and include migrants in Portugal, where the government has said that it will Grant Migrants and Asylum Seekers Full Citizenship Rights During COVID-19 Outbreak and also the case of Italy, where there is a proposal to regularise migrant workers working in the food and agricultural sector.
