The paper is the result of a yearlong inquiry= into possible courses of action that would address the recruitment governa= nce gap, with particular attention to the abuses that affect a large number= of workers. It only lightly touches on problems with recruitment and the f= actors impeding its regulation that are well-documented elsewhere. Instead,= it seeks to explain why the market for recruitment operates as it does and= to propose responses that address those market factors directly. It is wri= tten with recruitment from Mexico to the United States in mind, but its goa= l is also to offer insights relevant to other origin and destination corrid= ors that share some of the key features of the Mexico-U.S. setting. |

The purpose of the paper is to contribute to = a better understanding of international labour standards and their applicat= ion with regards to labour recruitment, regulatory models and approaches ai= med at preventing human trafficking and exploitation of workers in the recr= uitment process and models of enforcement to ensure compliance with nationa= l law and international standards. Special emphasis is put on the protectio= n of migrant workers in the context of cross-border recruitment and placeme= nt. The paper aims to present a basic framework for identifying emerg= ing good practices for further discussion. As such, it can also be used as = a preliminary baseline for the implementation of the second strategic objec= tive of the International Labour Organization=E2=80=99s Fair Recruitment In= itiative=E2=80=93strengthening laws, policies and enforcement mechanisms to= protect workers from abusive and fraudulent recruitment practices. While t= he extent and manifestations of those abuses have been extensively covered = by other reports, there is now a need to focus on emerging practices to enh= ance protection of workers from abuse, especially in the context of cross-b= order migration. The paper is primarily a descriptive presentation of= international labour standards and national laws, regulations and enforcem= ent mechanisms. It focuses in particular on private recruiters and employme= nt agents. It is presented as a work in progress to solicit feedback and co= mments to further enhance research design and develop a rigorous baseline a= gainst which progress can be measured in the future. |

The Child Labour Guidance Tool was created as= a resource for companies to meet the due diligence requirements laid out i= n the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, as they pertain t= o child labour. The guidelines aim to improve global supply chains go= vernance, due diligence and remediation processes to advance the progressiv= e elimination of child labour. They focus on the three =E2=80=9CH=E2=80=99s= =E2=80=9D: Hiring: end the practice of hiring children; Hazards: eliminate = hazardous child labour; Hours: reduce the working hours of any children abo= ve the minimum age to ensure that they do not work more than the number of = hours allowed under national law for light work and regular work. The= Guidance Tool explores what is expected of companies when seeking to preve= nt and address impacts deep in the supply chain, including working together= with other actors, particularly governments. The Guidance Tool refers to t= he relevant international standards of the ILO, and reflects the experience= s of individual companies that are working to implement the UN Guiding Prin= ciples on Business and Human Rights. |

Many = studies have explored the economic and trade dimensions of global supply ch= ains; however, less attention has been paid to the implications for employm= ent, working conditions and labour rights, including freedom of association= and collective bargaining. The report therefore has an original contributi= on to participate in the global debate. |

The study has been conducted to increase unde= rstanding and provide an overview of key questions around the operation and= impacts of Global Supply Chains in Latin America and the Caribbean and als= o as an input to the background document for the 2016 International Labour = Conference General Discussion. The report is based on a desk-based re= view, drawing upon existing studies of global supply chains to examine thei= r impacts and implications for the development of domestic firms, their con= tribution to productive transformation and structural change and their impa= cts on the quantity and quality of jobs in the Latin America and the Caribb= ean region. It situates the expansion of global supply chains in the region= within an analytical framework that recognizes both the economic and socia= l upgrading dimensions and the impacts also on both firms and workers. Spec= ial attention is given to the mechanisms for governing the terms and condit= ions of engagement between firms and workers in the global supply chains, w= ith the aim of identifying ways to jointly pursue the goals of raising comp= etitiveness and of promoting productive employment and decent work. |

The Work in Fishing Convention sets the basic= standards of decent work in the fishing industry. Convention No. 188 sets = out binding requirements to address the main issues concerning work on boar= d fishing vessels, including occupational safety and health and medical car= e at sea and ashore, rest periods, written work agreements, and social secu= rity protection at the same level as other workers. It aims to ensure that = fishing vessels are constructed and maintained so that fishers have decent = living conditions on board. The Convention helps prevent unacceptable= forms of work for all fishers, especially migrant fishers. It provides for= regulation of the recruitment process and investigation of complaints by f= ishers. This could help prevent forced labour, trafficking and other abuses= . States ratifying Convention No. 188 commit to exercising control over fis= hing vessels, through inspection, reporting, monitoring, complaint procedur= es, penalties and corrective measures, and may then also inspect foreign fi= shing vessels visiting their ports and take appropriate action. |
