Description
Focuses on practical approaches for improving labour standards in a more integrated global economy. Examines both what is has been achieved and what more needs to be done to ensure that steady and tangible progress towards universal respect for core labour standards is made. While concluding that the ILO should have primary responsibility for labour standards, also suggests that WTO should consider how to address egregious and willful violations of core labour standards when they are trade-related.
