Core Labour Standards
Core Labour Standards : A concept relevant for a discussion of whether trade and labour standards should be part of trade policy. According to international studies on labour standards, core labour standards should include (a) freedom of association and collective bargaining, (b) elimination of exploitative forms of child labour, (c) prohibition of forced labour, in the form of slavery and compulsory labour, and (d) non-discrimination in employment, i.e. the right to equal respect and treatment for all workers. All of them are considered basic human rights. Core labour standards are defined in ILO Conventions and Recommendations. See: International labour standards
