Introduction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In an ever-evolving world of work, protecting workers’ rights and promoting a safe and healthy work environment are fundamental aspects for human well-being and sustainable development. In this context, the International Labour Organization (ILO) plays a crucial role in establishing international standards and conventions aimed at ensuring fair and dignified working conditions. One of the most recent and relevant developments in this area is the adoption of ILO Convention 190 on Violence and Harassment in the World of Work. In this article, we will explore in-depth what Convention 190 is and how it is impacting employee care worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The convention considers a wide range of labor sectors and encompasses both formal and informal sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
