- Summary
- This report on the respect of internationally recognised core labour standards in Armenia is one of the series the ITUC is producing in accordance with the Ministerial Declaration adopted at the first Ministerial Conference of the World Trade Organisation (WTO) (Singapore, 9-13 December 1996) in which Ministers stated: "We renew our commitment to the observance of internationally recognised core labour standards." The fourth Ministerial Conference (Doha, 9-14 November 2001) reaffirmed this commitment. Although Armenia joined the WTO after these Conferences were held, the conclusions of these Conferences constitute a commitment for newly acceding members as well. These standards were further upheld in the International Labour Organisation (ILO) Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work adopted by the 174 member countries of the ILO at the International Labour Conference in 1998 and in the Declaration on Social Justice for a Fair Globalisation adopted unanimously by the ILO in 2008.
