Catholic Scholars for Worker Justice (CSWJ) is an international association of scholars who are committed to Catholic Social Teaching on workers’ rights. We were founded to proclaim the Church’s extremely welcoming attitude to unions in the workplace and to support workers in both Catholic sand secular workplaces who seek to form unions.
CSWJ stands with workers everywhere who pursue social justice through the natural right of free assciation that is rooted in the divine law. We support the following principles of Catholic Social Teaching concerning workers’ rights:
