As the International Labour
Conference takes place in the United Nations Geneva headquarters building, the Palais
des Nations, as well as in the ILO headquarters building, participants at
the Conference must respect the security requirements in force for entry to the
ILO, and those for entry to the United Nations. The latter have been upgraded
recently, and are still being developed. Up to the minute information on
requirements will be made available here. The two Conference
sites are ten minutes’ walk from each other, and are also linked by a shuttle bus
service.
In all events, it will be necessary
to obtain a security badge to enter the two buildings. Delegates to the
International Labour Conference are able to register and collect their badges
at the ILO Pavilion, which is situated near the main vehicle access gate
to ILO grounds, on route des Morillons, provided that the Office has received
their credentials. For this, see Registration. Badges must be
worn visibly at all times. The United Nations security guards may make spot
checks on participants, who must also carry national identity documents, with a
photograph, in confirmation of their entry badges.
Visitors to the International
Labour Conference may be issued with special visitors’ badges on presentation,
at the ILO Pavilion, of a national identity document with a photograph.
Visitor’s badges are valid for access to the Palais des Nations only if
they are accompanied by a national identity document, which may be kept as
security at the entry gate to the premises, and redeemed when exiting the site.
For access to the Palais des
Nations, visitors must use the dedicated visitors’ shuttle bus (specially
marked). This will depart from the ILO and will drop visitors off at the main Palais
des Nations gate, where they will pass through United Nations security,
prior to admission to the United Nations premises.
