Abstract |
Violence at work is a threat to productivity and decent work. This ILO code of practice responds to the needs of millions of workers affected by violence in the service sector in industrialized and developing countries. It provides general guidance to develop practical responses to violence at work, to promote dialogue, consultation and negotiation among governments, employers and workers, and to draft national laws, policies and programmes of action. |
