    1.0 Introduction

    1.1 Purpose of the Report:

    The main purpose of the report was to know and analyze the conventions that Bangladesh had

    accepted. To know this we had to go through a thorough research on the conventions.

    1.2 Methodology:

    In order to complete the requirement of this report, weI had to visit the local ILO office at

    Dhanmondi, collect necessary documents, and talk to the ILO officials to know more about ILO

    and the conventions that Bangladesh accepted. Basically we followed a secondary data analysis

    method to get this report done.

    1.4 Limitations:

    We tried to use all necessary information to contract an effective and efficient report but due to

    some unavoidable circumstances like time shortage and for study pressure of other courses we

    could not do the report in a more attractive manner and there might be mistakes in the body parts

    as well.

    2.0 Origins & History of ILO

    The ILO was created in 1919, as part of the Treaty of Versailles that ended World War I, to reflect

    the belief that universal and lasting peace can be accomplished only if it is based on social justice.

    The Constitution was drafted between January and April, 1919, by the Labour Commission set up

    by the Peace Conference, which first met in Paris and then in Versailles. The Commission, chaired

    by Samuel Gompers, head of the American Federation of Labour (AFL) in the United States, was

    composed of representatives from nine countries: Belgium, Cuba, Czechoslovakia, France, Italy,

    Japan, Poland, the United Kingdom and the United States. It resulted in a tripartite organization,

    the only one of its kind bringing together representatives of governments, employers and workers

    in its executive bodies.

    The Constitution contained ideas tested within the International Association for Labour

    Legislation, founded in Basel in 1901. Advocacy for an international organization dealing with

    labour issues began in the nineteenth century, led by two industrialists, Robert Owen (1771-1853)

    of Wales and Daniel Legrand (1783-1859) of France.

    The driving forces for ILO's creation arose from security, humanitarian, political and economic

    considerations. Summarizing them, the ILO Constitution's Preamble says the High Contracting

    Parties were 'moved by sentiments of justice and humanity as well as by the desire to secure the

    permanent peace of the world...

    There was keen appreciation of the importance of social justice in securing peace, against a

    background of exploitation of workers in the industrializing nations of that time. There was also

    increasing understanding of the world's economic interdependence and the need for cooperation to

    obtain similarity of working conditions in countries competing for markets. Reflecting these ideas,

    the Preamble states:

    1. Whereas universal and lasting peace can be established only if it is based upon social

    justice;

    2. And whereas conditions of labour exist involving such injustice hardship and privation to

    large numbers of people as to produce unrest so great that the peace and harmony of the

    world are imperiled; and an improvement of those conditions is urgently required;

    3. Whereas also the failure of any nation to adopt humane conditions of labour is an obstacle

    in the way of other nations which desire to improve the conditions in their own countries.

    The areas of improvement listed in the Preamble remain relevant today, for example:

    1. Regulation of the hours of work including the establishment of a maximum working day

    and week;

    2. Regulation of labour supply, prevention of unemployment and provision of an adequate

    living wage;

    3. Protection of the worker against sickness, disease and injury arising out of his employment;

    3/16

    4. Protection of children, young persons and women;

    5. Provision for old age and injury, protection of the interests of workers when employed in

    countries other than their own;

    6. Recognition of the principle of equal remuneration for work of equal value;

    7. Recognition of the principle of freedom of association;

    8. Organization of vocational and technical education, and other measures.

    The ILO has made signal contributions to the world of work from its early days. The first

    International Labour Conference held in Washington in October 1919 adopted six International

    Labour Conventions, which dealt with hours of work in industry, unemployment, and maternity

    protection, night work for women, minimum age and night work for young persons in industry.

    The ILO was located in Geneva in the summer of 1920 with France's Albert Thomas as the first

    Director of the International Labour Office, which is the Organization's permanent Secretariat.

    Under his strong impetus, 16 International Labour Conventions and 18 Recommendations were

    adopted in less than two years.

    This early zeal was quickly toned down because some governments felt there were too many

    Conventions, the budget too high and the reports too critical. Yet, the International Court of

    Justice, under pressure from the Government of France, declared that the ILO's domain extended

    also to international regulation of conditions of work in the agricultural sector.

    A Committee of Experts was set up in 1926 as a supervisory system on the application of ILO

    standards. The Committee, which exists today, is composed of independent jurists responsible for

    examining government reports and presenting its own report each year to the Conference.

    3.0 Mission & Objectives

    The primary goal of the ILO today is to promote opportunities for women and men to obtain

    decent and productive work, in conditions of freedom, equity, security and human dignity.

    The International Labour Organization (ILO) is devoted to promoting social justice and

    internationally recognized human and labour rights, pursuing its founding mission that labour

    peace is essential to prosperity. Today, the ILO helps advance the creation of decent work and the

    economic and working conditions that give working people and business people a stake in lasting

    peace, prosperity and progress. Its tripartite structure provides a unique platform for promoting

    decent work for all women and men. Its main aims are to promote rights at work, encourage decent

    employment opportunities, enhance social protection and strengthen dialogue on work-related

    issues.

    The ILO has four strategic objectives

    1. Promote and realize standards and fundamental principles and rights at work

    2. Create greater opportunities for women and men to decent employment and income

    3. Enhance the coverage and effectiveness of social protection for all

    4. Strengthen tripartism and social dialogue

    In support of its goals, the ILO offers unmatched expertise and knowledge about the world of

    work, acquired over more than 90 years of responding to the needs of people everywhere for

    decent work, livelihoods and dignity. It serves its tripartite constituents - and society as a whole -

    in a variety of ways, including:

    1. Formulation of international policies and programmes to promote basic human rights,

    improve working and living conditions, and enhance employment opportunities

    2. Creation of international labour standards backed by a unique system to supervise their

    application

    3. An extensive programme of international technical cooperation formulated and

    implemented in an active partnership with constituents, to help countries put these policies

    effective into practice

    4. Training, education and research activities to help advance all of these efforts

    The ILO accomplishes its work through three main bodies (The International Labour Conference,

    the Governing body and the Office) which comprise governments', employers' and workers'

    representatives.

    The International Labour Organization (ILO) is the only tripartite U.N. agency with government,

    employer, and worker representatives. This tripartite structure makes the ILO a unique forum in

    which the governments and the social partners of the economy of its Member States can freely and

    openly debate and elaborate labour standards and policies.

    Member States today in ILO comprises 183 Member States. In addition to the States which were

    Members of the International Labour Organization on 1 November 1945, any original member of

    the United Nations and any State admitted to membership of the United Nations by a decision of

    the General Assembly may become a Member of the ILO by communicating to the Director-

    General its formal acceptance of the obligations of the Constitution of the Organization..

    The ILO aims to ensure that it serves the needs of working women and men by bringing together

    governments, employers and workers to set labour standards, develop policies and devise

    programmes. The very structure of the ILO, where workers and employers together have an equal

    voice with governments in its deliberations, shows social dialogue in action. It ensures that the

    views of the social partners are closely reflected in ILO labour standards, policies and

    programmes.

    The work of the Governing Body and of the Office is aided by tripartite committees covering

    major industries. It is also supported by committees of experts on such matters as vocational

    training, management development, occupational safety and health, industrial relations, workers

    education, and special problems of women and young workers.

    4.1 About the Three Main Bodies

    Page | 5

  • 8/2/2019 ILO Term Paper for Fall

    6/16

    Underlying the ILOs work is the importance of cooperation between governments and employers

    and workers organizations in fostering social and economic progress and the three main bodies

    (The International Labour Conference, the Governing body and the Office) accomplishes the work

    of ILO through joint cooperation among them.

    International Labour Conference: The member States of the ILO meet at the International

    Labour Conference in June of each year, in Geneva. Each Member State is represented by

    two government delegates, an employer delegate and a worker delegate. They are

    accompanied by technical advisors. It is generally the Cabinet Ministers responsible for

    labour affairs in their own countries that head the delegations, take the floor and present

    their governments' points of view.

    Employer and worker delegates can express themselves and vote according to instructions

    received from their organizations. They sometimes vote against each other or even against

    their government representatives.

    The Conference plays a very important role. It establishes and adopts international labour

    standards. It acts as a forum where social and labour questions of importance to the entire

    world are discussed. The Conference also adopts the budget of the Organization and electsthe Governing Body.

    The Governing Body: It is the executive council of the ILO and meets three times a year in

    Geneva. It takes decisions on the ILO policies. It establishes the program and the budget

    which it then submits to the Conference for adoption. It also elects the Director-General.

    It is composed of 28 government members, 14 employer members and 14 worker

    members. Ten of the government seats are permanently held by States of chief industrial

    importance. Representatives of other member countries are elected at the Conference every

    three years, taking into account geographical distribution. The employers and workers each

    elect their own representatives.

    The International Labour Office: Itis the permanent secretariat of the International Labour

    Organization and focal point for the overall activities that it prepares under the scrutiny of

    the Governing Body and under the leadership of a Director-General, who is elected for a

    five-year renewable term. The Office serves as an action centre and research,

    documentation and administrative body; it employs some 1,700 officials of over 110

    nationalities at the Geneva Headquarters and offices in some 50 countries. In addition,

    about 600 experts undertake missions in all regions of the world under the program of

    technical cooperation.

    7.0 Conclusion:

    The labour laws in different countries have been gradually become humane since the inception of

    the International Labour Organization. A wonderful sense of unity began to originate among the

    workers of the world. Fresh life came to the labour-management process. The workers thought

    themselves not helpless. They became capable of choosing the Court of action. The attitudes of the

    owners towards their employees began to become normal and transparent. Labour problem began

    to matter much in the industrial governance. The aspirations of the workers for a just social order

    in the labour sector have been fulfilled so to say.
