    STATEMENT BY THE GCTU’ 8th CONGRESS ON THE RATIFICATION AND OBSERVANCE OF ILO CONVENTIONS

The legal and social protection of working people has decreased, their real incomes have dropped dramatically, the number of unemployed has risen, and even those who have a job do not always manage to secure themselves a decent standard of living.
