Definitely, that's one of the best things about the PRC.
Workers rights
Thanks! Bookmarked all of this! 😭❤️
I was joking lol, sorry.
A centralized union controlled by the government is not what I think most people would consider a “union”
They do not have the legal right to strike. http://www.bhrdw.gov.cn/Content-1771.html
I don’t understand how a union can advocate for its workers without that.
I have not read through your sources yet but thanks for including them, will go through them. Rising wages is more than I can say for the West, but I’d be careful to equate that with labor rights.
Workers in the PRC absolutely have the right to strike, there are hundreds of cases a year.
