    This tripartite capacity building workshop was organized to identify problems with current wage policy framework, and explore alternative approaches to the wage policy formulation.

An Chinese expert, Mr. Su Hainan shared his knowledge and experiences of China's wage policy, which included decentralized minimum wage determination and wage guideline system. Participants shared a view that there was a need to improve wage statistics so that tripartite policy-makers can make better informed decisions on wage policy, and also workers and employers can have more informed negotiation either at individual or collective level. Mr. Changhee Lee, ILO senior specialist on industrial relations and social dialogue emphasized that wage policy needs to be designed and implemented in full consideration of economic factors such as GDP growth, CPI and productivity as well as social needs.

    National tripartite consultative meeting on Draft Programme of 2008-2015 Social Partnership in Mongolia
    Opened by the Minister for Social Welfare and Labour, Mr. Demberel, the national tripartite consultative meeting discussed the draft programme of 2008-2015 social partnership in Mongolia, which was prepared by a tripartite working group. The meeting was attended by around 30 participants, including the President of Confederation of Mongolian Trade Unions (CMTU) and the President of Mongolian Employers' Federation (MONEF). The draft programme outlines policy measures to improve national tripartite social partnership process so that it can make contributions to the country's balanced social and economic development. While speaking on behalf of the ILO, Mr. Changhee Lee (senior specialist on industrial relations and social dialogue) pointed out that there was a need to strengthen consultation and in-depth policy deliberation process within the National Tripartite Committee on Social and Labour Consensus, and that national tripartite negotiation needs to take into account economic reality of the country instead of setting ambitious goals. While endorsing the overall framework of the draft programme, the participants requested the tripartite working group to make further improvement and elaboration based upon the discussion at the national consultative meeting.
