Book excerpt: As a result of a growing awareness of the need for a social pillar in the global economy, consensus has emerged in the international community around a set of fundamental principles and rights at work. These are: freedom of association and the effective recognition of the right to collective bargaining; and the elimination of forced labour, child labour and discrimination in employment and occupation. All member States of the International Labour Organization have committed themselves to respect, promote and realize these principles in the Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work and its Follow-up. This publication is the first in a series of reports under the Follow-up to the Declaration which will cover, each year, one of the four categories of fundamental principles and rights in turn.--Introduction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article examines the efficiency of the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work and its Follow-up as a response to the challenges brought forth by a globalization which, until now, has been mainly understood in economic terms. The International Labour Organization adopted in June 1998 the ILO Declaration to ensure that social progress goes hand in hand with economic growth. In order to maintain the link between the two, the ILO Declaration sets forth the obligation to all members, even if they have not ratified the Conventions recognized as fundamental both outside and inside the ILO Organization, to respect, promote and to implement the principles which are the subject of those Conventions. These include: the freedom of association and the effective recognition of the right to bargain collectively; the elimination of all forms of forced labour; the effective abolition of child labour; and the elimination of discrimination in respect of employment and occupation. In accordance with the Constitution, this obligation to all Members arises from the very fact of membership in the Organization. Thus the Declaration seeks to ensure a minimal universal social basis to certain international rules, independently of differences between States. However, the Declaration presents certain problems with regard to the traditional sources of public international law. First, it resembles a soft law instrument, meaning an instrument that may influence and encourage but which has no obligatory force. Furthermore, this instrument stems from an international organization, which is a secondary subject of public international law in comparison with the sovereign State. Second, the Declaration does not directly address itself to the actors of contemporary globalization such as multinational firms and companies, but also the States. In this respect, how could such an instrument really tackle the inequitable effects of contemporary economic globalization? Did the 1998 ILO declaration give birth to a mouse? In the light of these criticisms, this article describes the circumstances of the negotiations which led to the adoption of the Declaration. The specific context of the time shows how there was a climate of internal ideological tension between the ILO Members regarding what kind of strategy to follow. There was also an institutional necessity for the Organization to act in order to reposition itself on the international chessboard at the end of the XXth century. The adoption of the Declaration constituted the smallest common denominator between the Members. In order to convince its Members, the ILO made use of its constitutional resources - as it has done so in the past. Finally, the legal effects of the Declaration, inside as well as outside the ILO, are examined. Ironically, even though the ILO Declaration is a soft law instrument and was presented to Members as such, it is able to achieve the same results as a hard law instrument would have done in terms of the ratification of fundamental conventions. Moreover, in thinking about the impact beyond the ILO, in setting minimal social standards for all, multinational firms and alike, the ILO Declaration is building a strong public opinion around those rights at work. This, in turn, is surely a way to implement them efficiently.

Download or read book A Global Alliance Against Forced Labour written by International Labour Office and published by International Labour Organization. This book was released on 2005 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is an account of contemporary forced labour to date. It provides the first global and regional estimates by an international organization of forced labour in the world today, including the number of people affected and how many of them are victims of trafficking, as well as of the profits made by the criminals exploiting trafficked workers.Based on these data, the report highlights the gravity of the problem of forced labour. From this data emerges three major categories of forced labour: forced labour imposed by the State for economic, political or other purposes, forced labour linked to poverty and discrimination and forced labour that arises from migration and trafficking of workers across the world, often associated with globalization.The report provides evidence that the abolition of forced labour represents a challenge for virtually every country in the world industrialized, transition and developing countries alike. It assesses experience at the national level in taking up this challenge, with particular emphasis on the importance of sound laws and policies and their rigorous enforcement, as well as effective prevention strategies. The report also reviews the actions against forced labour taken over the past four years by the ILO and its tripartite partners governments, employers and workers. It calls for a new global alliance to relegate forced labour to history.
