The five things to know about
the Committee for Fundamental Principles and Rights at work
The Committee on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work
will discuss trends and challenges
as well as opportunities
with regards to the elimination of child labor, forced labor,
discrimination at work,
and the promotion of freedom of association and collective bargaining.
These rights are part of the DNA of this organization
and their realization is important to bigger goals,
in particular decent work,
social justice, fair globalization.
We've seen significant progress in recent years:
declining numbers in child labor,
stronger standards on forced labor,
better legislation on discrimination at work,
but we also see many challenges
in particular to freedom of association and collective bargaining.
These rights matter.
They matter to you, to me, to everyone,
they matter to the billions of people
who are not yet covered by those rights
and who face daily challenges in accessing basic rights in practice.
Now the discussion in the Committee takes place against the backdrop
of bigger political changes in the world of work.
What we see is a persistent violation
of fundamental principles and rights at work
in the rural and informal economy.
We also see global supply chains as an opportunity
but there are also risks associated with those global supply chains
which need to be discussed and addressed.
We also see conflict and crisis and natural disaster
as a great risk and major impediment
to the realization of fundamental principles and rights at work.
In overall the changing nature of work raises questions
as to who will protect the rights and principles at work in the future.
We also see greater opportunities
for policy coherence and synergies
to connect the ILO's Agenda with other policy agendas,
in particular the Sustainable Development Agenda
which was adopted in 2015
as well as the Board of Human Rights Agenda.
Delegates of the committee will have the opportunity
to engage in a very interactive debate
with representatives of other Organizations:
The World Bank,
the High Commissioner for Human Rights,
but also UNDP and regional commissions,
to discuss how these principles can be actually promoted
and realized in concrete terms.
The expected outcome of the committee
is a framework for action
which will guide the work of our Organization
and which will also help us to better connect with our partners.
It is the aim of improving access
to fundamental principles and rights at work
for the billions of people who don't have it yet,
no matter who they are,
no matter where they work,
no matter how difficult their circumstances.
These rights matter and they matter to all of us.
