BAKU, Azerbaijan, December 16. Discussions at
the 8th Congress of Azerbaijan Trade Unions will lead to the
further strengthening of the rights of workers in Azerbaijan, the
deepening of social dialogue, and the construction of a more just
and inclusive future for all workers, Director at the International
Labor Organization (ILO) Bureau for Workers' Activities (ACTRAV)
Oliver Röpke said in a video address to the congress held in Baku
today, Trend
reports.
"As previously articulated, we endorse your strategic
initiatives in domains such as occupational safety, gig economy
frameworks, equitable transitions, and ancillary policy
trajectories, and we will continue to align with you moving
forward.
The efficacy of the labor syndicate paradigm is fundamentally
anchored in its cohesion, autonomy, collective solidarity, and
unwavering dedication to the core principles that delineate its
identity," he added.
The International Labour Organization (ILO) Bureau for Workers'
Activities (ACTRAV) is the main link between the ILO and global
workers' organizations, ensuring workers' concerns shape ILO
policies, promoting workers' rights, and providing technical
support (training, resources) to strengthen unions worldwide,
focusing on social justice, decent work, and international labor
standards. ACTRAV acts as a bridge, keeping the ILO informed of
union developments and helping unions effectively engage with ILO
structures like the International Labour Conference.
