Conclusions concerning the promotion of sustainable enterprises - International Labour Conference, June 2007

As these conclusions show, the ILO is able to inject an essential impetus to the drive for an integrated approach to sustainable development because it is in workplaces that the social, economic and environmental dimensions come together inseparably. Furthermore, to ensure the progress of the Decent Work Agenda, it is necessary to situate it more clearly in a framework of sustainable development. The conclusions, arrived at through tripartite discussion, provide guidance on what is meant by an environment conducive to sustainable enterprises, on responsible and sustainable enterprise-level practices and on the roles of the Office and constituents in working iv towards making real the goal of sustainable development through the promotion of sustainable enterprises.
