The belief in equal opportunity
is a myth devised in lunacy
the concept don't ring true to me
it's a myth that truly shouldn't be

take for example
when kids cant be kids
forced to work at home
instead of truly live

beaten & abused
sleeping in school
cant stay awake 
cause they're treated like tools

forced out of an education
straight into bad situations
even the schools are corrupt 
in this nation

they pile on the work
atop of the hurt
give you detention
no comforting words

The belief in equal opportunity
is a myth devised in lunacy
the concept don't ring true to me
it's a myth that truly shouldn't be

the only thing I learned
was prepare for the worst
to face psychological torment
without solid perks

I'd say equality's real
but it's just a word
for those who don't realize
how this world truly works

equality's not real
when no one cares how you feel
the truths a bitter pill
in a world that kills free will

work at home 
work at school
work till you die 
no break no fuel
no room to succeed
just follow the rules

The belief in equal opportunity
is a myth devised in lunacy
the concept don't ring true to me
it's a myth that truly shouldn't be

Equal Opportunity

There’s a new trend in the world of work…the growth of an ageing workforce. 

It’s called the “Silver Tsunami’, and it means more people are working past retirement age, either because they want to or because they must, to make ends meet. 

So, what are the implications of this trend? What does it mean for retirement plans and social security? And what does it mean for employers and enterprises faced with an ageing workforce? 

In this podcast we’ll be talking two experts on ageing in the workplace: Roberto Suárez Santos, Secretary-General of the International Organisation of Employers (IOE), and Dorothea Schmidt-Klau, Chief of the Employment, Labour Markets and Youth Branch, in the ILO’s Employment Policy Department.

The Silver Tsunami: Are older workers the wave of the future?

Saving women’s lives by eliminating health disparities in IL.

The International Labour Organization (ILO) is a specialized agency of the United Nations and is devoted to promoting social justice and internationally recognized human and labour rights, pursuing its founding mission that labour peace is essential to prosperity.

Its main aims are to promote rights at work, encourage decent employment opportunities, enhance social protection and strengthen dialogue on work-related issues.
