Provea has announced a free online workshop designed to teach Venezuelans about their labor rights. The organization is running the program with the Central University of Venezuela and the Observatory of Trade Union Freedom.

The 10-week course will explain mechanisms for protecting workers in Venezuela. It will also address how to calculate social benefits, determine wages and use international bodies such as the International Labour Organization and the Inter-American human rights system.

The organizers said the program will highlight fundamental rights including access to a decent salary, collective bargaining and union organization. They have limited enrollment to 60 places, and applications will remain open until Sept. 7.

Provea promoted the initiative on X with the message: โ€œThere are companies and governments that do not want you to know your right to a decent salary, contracts or to organize.โ€ Interested applicants can register through the official Google Form linked by the organizers.
