Pope Francis on Thursday
called for "a new future of work based on decent and dignified
working conditions, stemming from collective bargaining and
promoting the common good, work that is humane" when economies
rebuild after the COVID pandemic.
In a video message to the 109th International Labour Conference,
Francis said that in 2020 "there was an unprecedented loss of
jobs".
He said "with the haste to return to greater economic activity,
at the end of the COVID-19 threat, let us avoid past fixations
with profit, isolation and nationalism, as well as blind
consumerism".
Francis said conditions were ripe to create a better way of
working.
