FOTSSIEH

The Federación de Organizaciones de Trabajadores del Sector Social e informal de la economía de Honduras (FOTSSIEH) was founded in 2001.

Affiliated with the Confederación Unitaria de Trabajadores (CUTH), FOTSSIEH brings together 42 associations in the country’s 18 departments and has some 22,000 members (80% of whom are women). With a women’s secretariat, this trade union organization has developed a strategy to empower women within groups of self-employed workers.
