- title:
- 2. Strengthen the engagement of the ILO’s social partners - trade unions and employers’ organizations - in advocacy and concrete actions for child labour elimination. The ARC project experience demonstrated that trade unions and employers’ organizations can play an important role in the fight against child labour when directly engaged in actions. For trade unions, actions might include including child labour in workers’ information services, involving trade union federations in efforts to formalize informal sector workers such as domestic workers, engaging trade unions to conduct advocacy campaigns as in Myanmar. Employers’ organizations and business networks can be directly involved in updating business codes of conducts to prohibit child labour in target sectors and advocating with their members regarding national laws on child labour.
