It is of special meaning in the year the ILO celebrates its 100th Anniversary, as the Protocol is part of the Centenary focus launched by the International Labour Office.
The Russian Federation is a Party to all 8 fundamental Conventions of the ILO. It has recently ratified a number of other important ILO documents demonstrating its commitment to international labour standards. Russia is constantly developing its legislation on labour, employment and social security, strengthening social dialogue, and sharing its experience with other States.
Ambassador Gennady Gatilov and Director-General Guy Ryder also exchanged views on issues relating to cooperation between Russia and ILO, including the contribution of Russia to a variety of events organized to mark the ILO`s Centenary.
