Abstract(s)

On the 8th of June 2018, the 107th International Labour Conference concluded its annual works adopting seven different resolutions. Among them, with the Resolution concerning the second recurrent discussion on social dialogue and tripartism the delegates gathered in Geneva reaffirmed and reinforced one of the founding principles of the International Labour Organization (ILO) and its ideology. The text of the resolution reported that “social dialogue and tripartism are essential for democracy and good governance” within a society where “free, independent, strong and representative employers’ and workers’ organizations, together with trust, commitment and respect by the governments for autonomy of the social partners and social dialogue outcomes are key conditions for effective social dialogue” (ILO 2018, 1). Therefore—the resolution concluded—“the tripartite constituents renew and reaffirm their commitment to promote and apply the principles of social dialogue and tripartism” (ILO 2018, 1). One year later, marking the centenary anniversary of the ILO, the 108th International Labour Conference approved the ILO Centenary Declaration for the Future of Work, once again re-stating the fact that “social dialogue, including collective bargaining and tripartite cooperation, provides an essential foundation of all ILO action” (ILO 2019, 5).
