Summary
This report sets out a record of violations of human rights around the Commonwealth, compared with the commitments given under the core conventions of the International Labour Organisation. Not every
Commonwealth country is covered, but thirty-four are listed, along with Zimbabwe. The breaches relate either to conventions not ratified or, more commonly, ratified conventions that are not being implemented properly.
