  • support policies that reduce gender-based violence and other forms of discrimination at work,
  • encourage the development of an International Labour Conference Convention to address gender-based violence at work,
  • promote labor rights in trade agreements and enforce the right of women and other workers to join unions, and
  • encourage U.S. companies with international supply chains and U.S. procurement agencies to ensure that their products are produced in workplaces that work to end gender-based workplace violence and respect the rights of women workers.
