    01 April 2004

    Labour Education 2004/4 No. 137: Although much has been done by the ILO to protect and promote the human rights of people with disabilities and to fi ght with them for equal opportunity and equal treatment in society and at the workplace,much more needs to be done. The International Labour Office has, since its very inception in 1919, considered that disabled people have equal rights to decent and productive work in conditions of freedom, equity, security and human dignity, and has worked to promote these rights through its international labour standards, its research and publications, and its advocacy and technical cooperation activities.
