GCTU Discusses Amendments to Confederation’s Charter

Main

On September 15, Moscow hosted a meeting of the Working Group on Preparing Amendments and Additions to the Charter of the General Confederation of Trade Unions (GCTU) at the Trade Unions Palace of Labor. Participants reviewed proposals from member organizations regarding necessary changes to the Confederation’s founding document.

The work on the Charter is of fundamental importance to the GCTU. As the primary document defining the Confederation’s operations and future development, the decisions made today will largely shape its trajectory.

“In essence, the Charter is the constitution of our organization. Therefore, we face a highly responsible task. Every change must be thoroughly discussed and evaluated not only for its immediate impact but also for its long-term implications,” emphasized Margarita Usova, Deputy General Secretary of the GCTU.

Work on the Charter amendments continues. All submitted proposals will be further refined and agreed-upon decisions will be incorporated into the updated version of the document.
