International Labour Organization (ILO)
The International Labour Organization (ILO) is a United Nations agency which deals with matters of equality and justice in labour. It aims to ensure that international labor standards and fair working conditions are met for all employers and workers. The ILO was established after WWI and has since won a Nobel Peace Prize for its work in pursuing decent working standards for citizens of all countries and assisting developing countries in labor matters. Almost all countries are members of the ILO (185 out of 193). Issues that the ILO focuses on include forced labor, fair minimum wage, HIV/AIDS (in terms of for example how employers should care for workers with HIV/AIDS), and rights for both migrant and domestic workers.
