Activity

In order to establish global standards, the GlobalUnion is engaged in a variety of activities that trade unions around the world have never done before in history.

The world's first legal super-union

GlobalUnion continues to evolve as a legal "super" labor union by eliminating and radically innovating various common practices of labor unions that have historically been taken for granted, in line with the original raison d'etre of labor unions.

No union full-time employees are required.

A full-time union employee is a person who continues to be employed by the employer, but does not actually work for the employer, but only performs the duties of the labor union. However, the reality is that it cannot be said that full-time union workers are performing duties for each and every worker,They are just feeding off union dues from their members.There is no situation in which the need for this is felt to be so great that it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a good idea.

No monthly union dues are required.

It is no exaggeration to say that monthly union dues are a system for the livelihood of full-time union workers,With the elimination of full-time union workers, mutual support among members, and the strength of a large number of members, a labor union for each and every worker can operate sufficiently without union dues.GlobalUnion has built a democratic and sound union using IT and technology, and has received volunteers from professionals, executives, and other experts to form the largest union group that is free of union dues, yet highly effective.

No unnecessary collective bargaining

Labor unions are guaranteed by the Constitution, the supreme law of the land, the right to organize, the right to collective action, and the right to collective bargaining. At GlobalUnion, we believe that the right to collective bargaining is a fundamental right of labor unions,Unite big, act fast, negotiate smartThe right to collective bargaining is considered to be the right to bargain collectively when there is a serious labor problem that cannot be resolved by the employer, and if the employer strongly desires to do so.

No petition for relief to the Labor Relations Commission

Labor unions, guaranteed by the Constitution as the supreme law, are further redefined in the Labor Union Law, a subordinate law, and an organization called the Labor Relations Commission has been established nationwide under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, which also provides an admirable system of petitioning for relief to the Labor Relations Commission. In practice, however,After years of filing a petition for relief, the employer has only been able to issue a meaningless order, such as "the employer must agree to collective bargaining," after filing a petition for relief with the Labor Relations Commission.GlobalUnion is a union group that truly executes relief for each and every worker as a legal "super" labor union that does not file for relief.

Operation of the Use Committee

The system of petitioning for redress by the Labor Relations Commission is a token system for workers with pressing problems, as it is unnecessarily time-consuming and full of decisions that do not resolve the underlying issues. In this respect, GlobalUnion, a legal "super" labor union, has a policy of not petitioning the Labor Relations Commission for redress, and has been able to effectively and drastically resolve problems by making full use of the right to organize and collective action.

But as much as black companies that do not agree to collective bargaining,The fact that there are black labor unions that do not want to collectively bargain is also a very big social problemThe situation is as follows. This means that no matter how much the employer side tries to face the workers for sound management, it will be hampered by black labor unions that abuse the strong rights of labor unions.

Therefore, GlobalUnion has established an "Employers' Committee" and operates a "Petition for Redress to the Employers' Committee" to provide redress to white employers.

If you are a white company trying to conduct sound management while properly dealing with workers and are troubled by black labor unions, please feel free to use GlobalUnion's "Petition for Relief from the Employers' Committee" system.

Workers' disposable income up

With the rapid depreciation of the yen and the risk of inflation in Japan in 2024, public fears that wages will not rise in the future have reached the point of stagflation, and the Kishida administration has declared that disposable income will be UP.

In this context, the Japanese Trade Union Confederation (JTUC) announced in its fourth round tally of the 2024 Spring Struggle that the average wage increase rate was 5.20%, the highest rate in 33 years since the last tally in 1991, when the rate was 5.66%. This was a hot topic of conversation.

GlobalUnion has long been concerned about the future of workers as a whole, and with the cooperation of a large number of knowledgeable volunteers, we have been working to increase disposable income using methods that go beyond a mere wage increase.

As a result, we have succeeded in increasing the disposable income of more than 10,000 workers by more than 151 TP3T over the past several years,The first wage increase of 5% achieved by the Spring Struggle in 33 years, which is actually three times the rate of increase achieved by the Spring Struggle.We are putting out

We are convinced that this achievement can only be realized because GlobalUnion has continued to work for the betterment of workers, other labor unions, employers, and all three sides, in order to truly improve workers' welfare.

Real wage increase due to union activities

In order for workers to increase their incomes, employers generally have to increase their base wages, or else they work side jobs. The trend toward allowing workers to work on the side is also encouraging an increase in the number of workers who work on the side, rather than making management efforts to increase labor costs through higher wages.

But can it be said to serve the workers' fundamental economic interests?

Skim job applications that fill in the gaps in workers' time have become very popular as side jobs, but to begin with, a time gap is time outside of work, and if we are truly pursuing workers' happiness, the skim time should be free time, not work.Promotion that actively violates the statutory working hours stipulated in Article 32 of the Labor Standards LawIt can be said that Namely,Wages have not increased in real terms, but simply the number of hours worked has increased.This means.

Therefore, GlobalUnion launched the "Thin Skimmer Income Union" as the first project in the world where anyone, anywhere, anytime can earn income through its activities, aiming to increase real income during working hours.

We at Shin-Skima Income Union believe that a system in which anyone can earn income anytime and anywhere, even during work hours, will lead to higher wages for workers in the true sense of the word, instead of depriving them of their precious free time and spurring them to hard labor.

Specifically, whether it is work time or free time,

• Are there any unpaid wages or harassment in the workplace?
• Are you having trouble with unscrupulous companies forcing you to sign expensive contracts?
• Are there people around you in need?

If someone wants to solve a problem that comes up as part of communication or daily conversation with a customer, such as a problem with the customer, they are introduced to a member who can solve it, and a portion of the amount from the solved problem is donated as a donation to the member who introduced the problem and the member who solved it.

The activities are not tied to the employer, even during work hours, as they are conducted within the scope of daily conversations and voluntary activities by everyone: the person with the problem, the referring union member, and the union member who solves the problem. By signing a labor-management agreement with a cooperative white company in advance, you can earn additional income through activities with a higher social contribution nature.

Support for workers' economic activities

In Japan, where there is a labor shortage, the number of workers from abroad as well as domestically will continue to increase.

• Obtain visa and residence card
• Various procedures for bank accounts, credit cards, etc.
• Finding a place to live and signing contracts for electricity, gas, water, internet, etc.
• Counseling on labor issues received at the place of employment
• looking for a change of occupation
• Moving operations and disposal of unwanted items

Many foreign workers, in particular, are troubled by having to go through these procedures that are essential to their daily lives, even though they cannot understand the language as well as they would like.

GlobalUnion has a number of lawyers, labor and social security attorneys, certified public accountants, judicial scriveners, administrative scriveners, and other professionals, as well as a number of experienced business managers who support our activities on a voluntary basis.

We provide comprehensive support for the lives of domestic workers as well as overseas workers,To ensure that workers around the world can work comfortably in a healthy working environmentActivities.
