A Common Concern: The Climate Justice Podcast - Workers’ Rights and Climate Change
In this episode of A Common Concern: The Climate Justice Podcast, Kate Cook discusses workers’ rights and climate change with Kalina Arabadjieva of the European Trade Union Institute.
From the principles and standards of the International Labour Organisation to the provisions of the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, from the rules of the EU Green Deal to the three pillars of the Aarhus Convention, there are many points of intersection between international labour law and climate law. Kate and Kalina discuss the potential for mutual reinforcement in relation to the protection of workers both from the direct impacts of climate change, including heat stress, and in relation to securing a just transition for the workforce in the context of decarbonization. Is closer integration between workers’ rights and climate law a key way to secure climate justice in the face of colossal challenges across the world?
