This report investigates the experiences of LGBT+ workers in the transport industry, and the work of unions in finding creative responses to challenges facing these workers.
Using a case study approach, the project interviewed eight unions representing transport workers across North America, South America, Asia, Europe, and Africa. Despite the geographic diversity, several common themes emerged concerning the role of unions in the transport sector in supporting LGBT+ workers.
