Labour standards
Core labor standards: Handbook
The handbook gives some basic information on international core labour standards (CLS), and looks at ways in which they can be incorporated into ADB activities.
The handbook describes the CLS and how to integrate them into ADB operations, whenever necessary. It was developed by ILO and ADB as a result of regional technical assistance. The recommendations here are not an expansion of any policy, and the user should note the distinction between good practice suggestions, i.e., the examples in this Handbook, and the policy requirements presented in ADB’s Operations Manual.
