With workers, employers and communities facing the possibility of a catastrophic pandemic, three years ago the ILO has launched efforts to combat the effects of influenza outbreaks on livelihoods and health and safety in the workplace. Its unique tripartite structure places it in an extremely favourable position to address the concerns of governments, employers and workers regarding the threats posed by the disease.
