STATEMENT BY THE GCTU’ 8th CONGRESS ON THE RATIFICATION AND OBSERVANCE OF ILO CONVENTIONS
The 8th Congress of the General Confederation of Trade Unions expresses concern at the socio-economic development in the region’s countries hit by an economic slowdown resulting from the global crisis and aggravated by a worsening geopolitical situation. The social price of anti-crisis measures taken in recent years, and economic, political and legislative transformations has almost everywhere been exorbitantly high. 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.
