 ILO
Activities
The above issues raise opportunities and challenges for ILO
advisory services and related research and technical cooperation in the field,
as many governments and their social partners need to formulate, evaluate, and
redefine both general and sectoral policies on trade, investment, employment,
and human resource development. Employers' and workers' organizations need such
analysis as a basis for formulating strategic policy, and guidelines for collective
bargaining.
There has been little analysis of the labour effects of globalization
at sectoral level. The ILO organised a Tripartite
Meeting on the Social and Labour Impact of Globalization in the Manufacture of
Transport Equipment from 8-12 May 2000 which focussed on this issue.
Another promising area for ILO work in the field -- especially
in Latin America and Asia -- is in the promotion of and participation in sectoral
fora for bipartite and tripartite consultations on productivity-wage bargaining,
training and related issues in the TEM sector
