- Summary:
- The ILO Governing Body decided in 2013 to place an item on decent work in global supply chains on the agenda of the 105th Session of the International Labour Conference. Many studies have explored the economic and trade dimensions; however, less attention has been paid to the implications for employment, working conditions and labour rights, including freedom of association and collective bargaining. The general discussion therefore has an original contribution to make to the global debate.
