Equality in employment and occupation

The promotion of equal opportunities and treatment has always had an important place in the policy and activities of the ILO. The ILO has adopted several ILS on equality in employment. Some of them, i.e. those on equal remuneration, non-discrimination at work and workers with family responsibilities, cover all workers, others target specific categories, such as migrant workers, indigenous and tribal peoples and workers with HIV/AIDS. In addition, the ILO carries out technical cooperation projects to boost equality in employment, in conjunction with governments, the social partners and other national actors.

Through training on ILS and other international instruments on equality, as well as good practices and projects on the issue, we encourage people working on equal opportunities, non-discrimination and the improvement of women's status to promote equality in employment at the national level.
