Summary:Explores how the ILO can develop a central recommendation of the World Commission on the Social Dimension of Globalization to make decent work a global goal. Discusses six broad policy themes: national policies to address globalization; decent work in global production systems; growth, investment and employment and the case for dialogue and global policy coherence; constructing a socio-economic floor; the global economy and the cross-border movement of people; and strengthening the international labour standards system. Examines the role of the ILO in mobilizing action for change.
