Sectoral activities at the ILO
The sectoral approach is the ILO's platform for addressing
all aspects of work in various sectors of economic activity. It provides
an important
window on the world of work, bringing together ILO constituents at the
international, regional and national levels.
The added value of this approach is its integrating
agenda, which addresses all four of the ILO's strategic objectives
and allows for real, practical outcomes to the ILO's work in
specific sectors.
Social dialogue at the sectoral level is strengthened
through a strategic mix of sectoral research, meetings,
national activities, action
programmes and
standards-related activities, as well as a number of cross-sectoral
activities.
Sectoral social dialogue provides the ILO's constituents with opportunities
for interaction
on issues
of
concern in their sector.
