    Tripartite Workshop Trade and Labour Market Challenges in Mexico

    The International Labour Organisation’s (ILO) Research Department, the ILO Country Office for Mexico and Cuba and the European Commission (EC) are jointly organizing a research seminar and tripartite workshop in Mexico City over 1.5 days. The two events, which will take place on 27-28th February 2020, are within the framework of the project “Trade, enterprises and labour markets: diagnostic and firm level assessment”. The aim of the project is to inform on polices to anticipate and mitigate the labour market impacts of trade at the macro and enterprise level through a better understanding of the methodologies, frameworks and indicators used to assess impacts. In doing so, the project will go beyond quantitative metrics of the labour markets such as employment and productivity and analysis labour rights and working conditions.
