Abstract These seven discussion booklets examine the links between the workplace, environmental protection and economic and social development. They cover: environmental indicators of development; political indicators of development; economic development and security; social development; equality of opportunity and treatment; education and training; and international development. The booklets highlight the role of workers and trade unions in promoting efforts to achieve a more environmentally sustainable pattern of development. A guide to the booklets explains how they may be used in workers' education programmes.
