Journalists Syndicate to host discussion on media worker rights

The Journalists Syndicate has called for an open discussion regarding union protection for media practitioners and the institutional regulations governing the rights of employees in news websites. The discussion is scheduled to take place at the Syndicate's headquarters on Saturday, October 3, 2026, at 5:00 PM.

The meeting aims to explore legal, regulatory, and professional methods to ensure that union protection extends to all genuine practitioners of the profession. Key topics include establishing institutional controls for workers in digital news outlets and implementing strict membership procedures to verify actual professional practice and combat impersonation.

Additionally, the Syndicate seeks to develop safeguards to prevent media institutions from exploiting current conditions to undermine workers' rights. The initiative is part of a broader effort to organize the journalistic landscape and expand the media market through clear legal and institutional frameworks.
