The ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, adopted in 1998 and amended in 2022, is an expression of commitment by governments, employers' and workers' organizations to uphold basic human values - values that are vital to our social and economic lives. It affirms the obligations and commitments that are inherent in membership of the ILO, namely:
a. freedom of association and the effective recognition of the right to collective bargaining; b. the elimination of all forms of forced or compulsory labour; c. the effective abolition of child labour; d. the elimination of discrimination in respect of employment and occupation; and e. a safe and healthy working environment.
Socketry, the open source organisation, is committed to these principles and rights.
