Christliche Gewerkschaften (Christian Trade Unions)

Christliche Gewerkschaften, or Christian Trade Unions, are labor organizations inspired by Christian values that advocate for workers’ rights and fair working conditions. They aim to balance economic interests with ethical principles such as justice, solidarity, and respect for human dignity. These unions seek to promote social justice, equitable wages, and safe workplaces, often emphasizing dialogue and cooperation between employers, employees, and society. Rooted in Christian social teachings, they work toward sustainable economic policies and moral responsibility within labor relations, aiming to improve the lives of workers while aligning with faith-based moral perspectives.
