This report has been prepared as the basis for discussion at the ILO tripartite meeting on the 'Social and Implications of the Increased use of Advanced Retail Technologies', held from 18 to 20 September 2006 in Geneva. The objective of the meeting is to examine the role of new technologies in shaping the business employment scene, focusing on the introduction of radio frequency identification (RFID) technologies in the retail sector.
Achieving the goal of decent work for all--in conditions of freedom, equity, security, and human dignity--is possible only if employees can actively participate in the process. This global report emphasizes the need for a conducive environment to facilitate collective bargaining and conflict resolution, wellfunctioning labor administration, and strong workers' and employers' organizations. The report identifies positive developments in freedom of association, such as initiatives promoting that freedom due to growing economic integration. It also describes the restrictions and interference that representative organizations face from the challenges posed by structural and technological changes and globalization. Finally, it describes the ILO response to these challenges through technical cooperation and assistance to member states and outlines a plan of action for the next four years.
