I need sometimes to travel abroad. I try to reduce in-person presence at international conferences but as a scientists, I cannot avoid them entirely.

Yes, I can reduce the environmental impacts by avoiding air travel. But I am also worried about the working conditions in the hotel during my stay.

For such reasons, and for everyone who travels, here are lists of hotels that respect their workers' rights:

USA & Canada: https://www.fairhotel.org/
Denmark: http://okforhold.dk/
Norway: https://www.fellesforbundet.no/en/
Sweden: https://www.schystavillkor.se/
Spain: https://fairhotels.es/?page_id=2

(If you know of other lists or countries to facilitate responsible travels, please comment below!)

Power to the Unions!

The working class are slaves to their corporate masters. Capitalism in the US feels like Feudalism. You have no power over the evil bastard executives without labour unions.
