Freedom of association and collective bargaining in the Philippines
Promoting the effective recognition and implementation of the fundamental rights of freedom of association and collective bargaining in the Philippines: Final project fact sheet
The rights of freedom of association and collective bargaining are basic human rights in the workplace, covered by ILO Convention Nos. 87 and 98 respectively. Their recognition and implementation are seen to be important barometers of democracy and contribute to sustainable and economic development.
Through the funding of the United States Department of State, the International Labour Organization (ILO) supported the government’s initiatives to promote decent work and to address issues raised by the ILO supervisory bodies.
The Project seeks to build on previous and ongoing ILO initiatives in the Philippines which have, in tandem with the government’s own programmes sought to develop strategies that promote freedom of association and use of collective bargaining by undertaking activities such as awareness raising, training and capacity building of various partner organizations to foster a climate conducive to better industrial relations.
