Social Dialogue

The effects of economic globalization have accentuated the need for social dialogue. With tripartism being the foundation of social dialogue, it is thus a necessary part of the process of establishing and securing democracy, social justice and peace. It also fosters transparent governance under the rule of law. Social dialogue assists in strengthening relations and in reducing tensions among the parties concerned. It is also a means of dispute prevention and settlement that has a welcome impact on productivity, economic efficiency, and competitiveness.
