ILO has a major role to play in responding to the economic crisis says UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon
ILO Director General Juan Somavia welcomed UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon today to the ILO's Governing Body. Finding solutions to the economic crisis requires the kind of forward thinking represented at the ILO, said the Secretary-General, which brings together employers, workers and governments. "We are going to need this kind of partnership, and this kind of practical approach, to get through this difficult time," he added.
