Relations with NGOs
As a tripartite organization, the ILO does not simply collaborate with non-governmental organizations but actually integrates sectors of civil society into its structure. The ILO maintains a close relationship with the non-governmental sector, which involves the following:
- the integration of non-governmental social partners in the identity of the Organization itself
- according consultative status to non-governmental international organizations that meet certain criteria
- collaboration at the operational level with a variety of international, regional, national and local organizations
