The International Labour Organization (ILO)

The International Labour Organization (ILO) is a specialized agency of the United Nations that promotes social justice and fair work conditions worldwide. Founded in 1919, it sets international labor standards, develops policies to improve employment opportunities, and fosters rights at work. Its objective is to ensure decent work for all, focusing on issues like workers' rights, social protection, and workplace safety. The ILO brings together governments, employers, and workers to collaborate on solutions to global labor challenges, aiming to enhance economic stability and social welfare across countries.
