UN labor chief demands policies for social justice | Spero News
Addressing the “Decent Work – A Key to Social Justice for a Fair Globalization” conference in Oslo, Norway, he told participants that a balanced and sustainable development approach to globalization is needed based on boosting opportunities for decent work.
Mr. Somavia stressed five key areas of focus regarding the challenge to ensure policy coherence: respect for human rights; sustainable enterprises as necessary for competition and productivity; a social floor to promote poverty eradication; the impact of trade and financial policies on decent work; and “green” jobs to respond to climate change.
