The Sultanate of Oman has been a member state of the ILO since 1994, all of which are one of the eight fundamental conventions.

The DWCP was extended in 2014 for a further two years and focused on Omanisation of the workforce, social dialogue, labour administration, International Labour Standards; and social protection.
