Presidents Joe Biden and Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva will call for improved working conditions in the US and Brazil at a joint event in New York on the sidelines of next month’s United Nations General Assembly, according to Brazilian Labor Minister Luiz Marinho.
Marinho said in an interview with Bloomberg News on Monday that the leaders “will launch a kind of manifesto calling attention to the need to improve labor relations,” that would touch on work environments and pay.
