Forced Labour Convention

The Forced Labour Convention is an international treaty established by the International Labour Organization (ILO) to eliminate forced labor worldwide. It sets standards requiring countries to prohibit and eliminate all forms of forced or compulsory labor, ensuring that no worker is coerced into work under threat or punishment. The convention promotes fair treatment, freedom from exploitation, and the right to choose employment freely. It also encourages governments to establish laws and measures to prevent forced labor and help victims. Overall, it aims to protect workers' rights and promote fair, voluntary employment conditions globally.
