ODTI
International Labor and Social Rights Observatory
The WBO and the Lavoro Institute joined efforts to internationalize the debate on labor and social rights. Joint actions are being undertaken to expand the international reach of issues such as the growing informality and precariousness of the labor market, work on digital platforms, working hours, wage equality, union organization, and respect for human rights standards in the world of work.
The joint action includes the creation of a Trade Union Working Group with the participation of the country's main trade unions – CUT, CGT, and Força Sindical – as well as the Instituto Novos Paradigmas, with a view to increasing contact with international bodies such as the Inter-American System of Human Rights and the International Labor Organization (ILO).
A digital platform was created to democratize access to documents, decisions, reports, and international case law in the sector, making publicly available a map of all regulations and case law from bodies such as the ILO, the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR), and the International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights (ICESCR).
