ETI, ILO convention 190 policy brief.pdf

The International Labour Conference (ILC) voted in June 2019 to adopt Convention 190 on Ending Violence and Harassment in the World of Work (C190). This marks a significant victory for informal workers - especially women and socially excluded groups - addressing the realities of some of the world’s most vulnerable and marginalised workers.
