Temporary labour migration

This document reviews the features of temporary labour migration (TLM), the complexities created by differing definitions and visions of what it constitutes, the various objectives pursued with the establishment of TLM programmes and their rapidly evolving nature. It also makes proposals on possible ways forward to maximize the opportunities and minimize the risks associated with TLM, including in the light of new developments in the world of work as they became apparent with the COVID-19 pandemic. The Governing Body is invited to see the draft decision in paragraph 49.
