International Labour Law - a.a. 22/23 - Seminar
contact person: Silvia Borelli
40 hours | 3+3 ECTS credits
The course aims at providing knowledge about the International Labour Organisation and its functioning. In the first part of the course, the origin and the history of ILO that, in 2019 celebrates its centenary, are illustrated. Moreover, the ILO tripartite composition is explain, describing the different bodies that operate inside the Organisation. Besides, the rules that regulate the ILO Committees aimed at enforcing ILO Conventions and Recommendations are presented.
The second part of the course focuses on what ILO does to improve labour standards and working conditions. Therefore, the main ILO Conventions and Recommendations are examined, taking also into consideration how they have been implemented at national level. Some cases of infringements and violations detected by the ILO Committees are illustrated. In the final part of the course, the effectiveness of ILO regulation at national level is analysed, exploring if and how national courts apply ILO Conventions and Regulations and their juridical value in the national legal orders. Moreover, the relevance of ILO regulation for other International entities (as the EU Institutions, the European Court of Human Rights and the European Committee for social rights) is explored.
Participants in the first part of the course will earn 3 ECTS, as well as participants to the second part of the course.
In 2019 the course will be taught by two ILO fonctionnaires that can present their deep knowledge of the Organisation.
