This publication is produced in association with trade unionists in Australia and looks at how unions can strengthen international labour standards by linking them to international trade through the use of social clauses.

To do this effectively, the author argues that we need to move away from the ‘social dumping’ argument and argue for a social dimension to the global economy.

As we approach the 50th anniversary of ILO Convention 87 (Freedom of Association) and against the background of a global attack on workers’ rights, the author looks at new ways of pressurising governments and transnational companies into respecting labour standards. This publication looks specifically at the role of corporate codes of conduct.
