ILO Convention No. 87

ILO Convention No. 87, adopted in 1948, is an international treaty that protects the right of workers and employers to form and join independent trade unions. It promotes freedom of association, allowing individuals to organize collectively for better working conditions and rights. The convention ensures that these organizations can operate without interference from the government or employers. By safeguarding these rights, ILO Convention No. 87 aims to foster social dialogue and cooperation in the workplace, ultimately contributing to fair labor practices and the protection of workers' rights worldwide.
