Moral outrage often follows news stories exposing egregious abuse of workers, but it does not result in the actions needed to address it. Sadly, it feels like a perpetual game of whack-a-mole. I will argue, giving three examples from my own professional experience, that we need a new governance system regulating the world of work. The International Labour Organization (ILO) is the right institution, but often has the wrong actors around the negotiating table who can fix the endemic labour abuse that characterises our global economic system today.
道德愤怒通常发生在揭露严重虐待工人的新闻报道之后,但这并没有导致解决这一问题所需的行动。可悲的是,这感觉像是一场永远的打地鼠游戏。我将根据我自己的专业经验举三个例子,认为我们需要一个新的治理体系来规范工作世界。国际劳工组织(ILO)是正确的机构,但谈判桌上往往有错误的行为者,他们可以解决当今全球经济体系中普遍存在的劳动力滥用问题。

Although the terminology has changed over time, the ‘human-centredness’ of the International Labour Organization’s (ILO) work was already enshrined in the objective of a ‘regime de travail réellement humain’ (humane working conditions) and the conviction that labour is not a commodity, as stated in the ILO’s founding constitution. These principles have informed the Declaration of Philadelphia in 1944 and the Decent Work Agenda adopted in 2000. They have been reconfirmed in the Centenary Declaration. The ILO has also always been oriented towards the future. And as a child of the industrial revolution and the 19th-century social reform movement, its mandate to improve labour conditions and promote labour rights envisioned this future as a democratic form of regulated welfare capitalism. However, more explicitly future-oriented debates have been primarily on technological change and its impact on the world of work. Silva rightly criticizes this narrow focus (Silva, 2021), since it reflects, until today, the dominant role of advanced industrial member states of the ILO. On the contrary, technological change can still be seen, together with climate change, as the most obvious driver of transformation in the world of work, in developed but also more and more in developing countries. The ideas and policy strategies to promote the ILO’s vision for the future of work and response to technological change have been adjusted over time. They have been influenced first by the power constellation in the ILO’s tripartite Governing Body and International Labour Conference and second by the innovative force and technical capacity of the International Labour Office, the ILO’s secretariat, which is not tripartite. While the ILO’s tripartite structure with employers’, workers’ and government representation
尽管术语随着时间的推移发生了变化,但国际劳工组织(ILO)工作的“以人为本”已经体现在“人类劳动制度”(人道的工作条件)的目标中,以及劳工组织创始章程中所述的劳工不是商品的信念中。这些原则为1944年《费城宣言》和2000年通过的《体面工作议程》提供了依据。它们在《百年宣言》中得到了重申。国际劳工组织也始终面向未来。作为工业革命和19世纪社会改革运动的产物,其改善劳动条件和促进劳工权利的使命将未来设想为一种受监管的福利资本主义的民主形式。然而,更明确的面向未来的辩论主要是关于技术变革及其对工作世界的影响。席尔瓦正确地批评了这种狭隘的关注点(Silva,2021),因为它反映了直到今天国际劳工组织先进工业成员国的主导作用。相反,技术变化和气候变化仍然可以被视为工作世界变革的最明显驱动力,在发达国家,但在发展中国家也越来越多。随着时间的推移,促进国际劳工组织对未来工作和应对技术变革的愿景的想法和政策战略已经进行了调整。他们首先受到国际劳工组织三方理事机构和国际劳工大会的权力格局的影响,其次受到国际劳工局的创新力量和技术能力的影响,国际劳工局秘书处不是三方的。而国际劳工组织由雇主、工人和政府代表组成的三方结构

Disability-targeted cash transfers are increasingly used by governments in low- and middle-income countries as a tool to address poverty and exclusion among people with disabilities. However, in many settings, accurate estimates of coverage and an understanding of factors affecting uptake are needed for effective delivery. This study explores coverage of the Disability Allowance in the Maldives, an unconditional, non-means tested cash transfer (2000 MVR or US$130 per month) and factors affecting uptake. It uses mixed methods, combining data from a nationally representative population-based survey with qualitative research among people with disabilities who are and are not receiving the Disability Allowance. This research found that 25.6% of people with disabilities across the Maldives are receiving the Disability Allowance. Coverage was lowest for women, older adults, people living in the capital (Malé), wealthier households and people with sensory impairments. Factors affecting uptake included lack of information about the programme, perceptions of disability and eligibility criteria, geographical and financial factors, and stigma.
针对残疾人的现金转移支付越来越多地被低收入和中等收入国家的政府用作解决残疾人贫困和被排斥问题的工具。然而,在许多情况下,为了有效地提供,需要准确估计覆盖率和了解影响吸收的因素。本研究探讨了马尔代夫残疾津贴(一种无条件的、不经经济状况调查的现金补助(每月2000 MVR或130美元)的覆盖范围以及影响吸收的因素。它采用混合方法,将具有全国代表性的人口调查数据与对领取和未领取残疾津贴的残疾人进行的定性研究相结合。这项研究发现,马尔代夫全国有25.6%的残疾人领取残疾津贴。妇女、老年人、居住在首都(mal)的人、较富裕的家庭和有感官障碍的人的覆盖率最低。影响吸收的因素包括缺乏有关该方案的信息、对残疾和资格标准的看法、地理和经济因素以及耻辱。

Inclusive statistics: A disaggregation of indicators by disability status and its implications for policy 包容性统计:按残疾状况分列的指标及其对政策的影响

Disability has received limited attention on the global data and social policy scene. There are few global data portals or indices tracking the socioeconomic situation of persons with disabilities. Global social policy initiatives tend to focus on disability benefits, while other social policies may impact the situation of persons with disabilities. The absence of internationally comparable data and tools to measure disability could explain this lack of attention until recently. Given progress with respect to measuring disability, this article set out to find out if human development indicators can be disaggregated by disability status using census and mainstream survey data and, if they can, consider what such disaggregation reveals regarding the socioeconomic situation of persons with disabilities and derive implications for social policies. Disability status is measured through self-reports of functional difficulties (e.g. seeing, hearing). For 19 low- and middle-income countries, the median prevalence stands at 13% among adults aged 15 years and older, and at 28% among households. We could disaggregate a range of human development indicators across disability status for all countries. There are consistent inequalities associated with disability, particularly in terms of educational attainment, employment population ratio, multidimensional poverty, and food security. At the same time, we find that not all persons with functional difficulties experience deprivations. Results in this article on the prevalence of functional difficulties and their association with socioeconomic deprivations show that disability should be central to social policies globally. More data collection, research, and policy work are needed to curb the inequalities associated with disability.
残疾问题在全球数据和社会政策领域受到的关注有限。跟踪残疾人社会经济状况的全球数据门户或指数很少。全球社会政策倡议往往侧重于残疾福利,而其他社会政策则可能影响残疾人的处境。缺乏国际上可比较的数据和工具来衡量残疾,这可以解释直到最近才引起重视的原因。鉴于在衡量残疾方面取得的进展,本文着手研究人类发展指标是否可以使用人口普查和主流调查数据按残疾状况分类,如果可以的话,考虑这种分类揭示了残疾人的社会经济状况,并得出对社会政策的影响。残疾状况是通过自我报告功能障碍(如视力、听力)来衡量的。在19个低收入和中等收入国家,15岁及以上成年人的中位数患病率为13%,家庭中的中位数患病率为28%。我们可以对所有国家残疾状况的一系列人类发展指标进行分类。与残疾相关的不平等一直存在,特别是在受教育程度、就业人口比例、多维贫困和粮食安全方面。与此同时,我们发现并非所有有功能障碍的人都经历过剥夺。本文关于功能障碍的普遍性及其与社会经济剥夺的关系的结果表明,残疾应成为全球社会政策的核心。需要更多的数据收集、研究和政策工作来遏制与残疾有关的不平等。

Policy responses to the COVID-19 pandemic are assessed by documenting the public’s perception, knowledge, and adherence to preventive behaviors to mitigate the spread of the virus. Using an online survey administered in both Qatar and Kuwait, this article examines the associated state-mandated compliance measures experienced by citizens and expats during the outbreak of COVID-19. The survey measured public attitudes, behavioral responses, and compliance with state-mandated preventive measures. The study showed that individuals were well informed about the pandemic, yet controversy exists concerning compliance with control measures to contain the virus, which continue to be challenged on the basis of multiple individual-level factors. These findings raise the imperative need to call for governments’ transparent communications with the public regarding information disclosure measures to gain public attention and trust, which are essential to strategic planning success.
通过记录公众对预防行为的认知、知识和遵守情况来评估对新冠肺炎大流行的政策应对措施,以减缓病毒的传播。本文通过在卡塔尔和科威特进行的在线调查,研究了公民和外籍人士在新冠肺炎爆发期间所经历的相关国家强制遵守措施。该调查测量了公众的态度、行为反应以及对国家规定的预防措施的遵守情况。这项研究表明,个人对新冠疫情有充分的了解,但在遵守控制措施以遏制病毒方面存在争议,这一点仍受到多个个人层面因素的挑战。这些发现提出了迫切需要呼吁政府就信息披露措施与公众进行透明沟通,以获得公众的关注和信任,这对战略规划的成功至关重要。

A ‘north star’ in governing global labour migration? The ILO and the Fair Recruitment Initiative 治理全球劳动力迁移的“北极星”?劳工组织和公平招聘倡议
IF 1.5 Q2 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2022-04-21 DOI: 10.1177/14680181221084792
Katharine Jones
In 2014, the International Labour Organization (ILO) launched the Fair Recruitment Initiative (FRI) with the aim of tackling labour exploitation widely associated with the recruitment of low-wage migrant workers. To date, scholars have largely neglected the ILO’s role in developing ‘fair recruitment’ as a mechanism of global social policy. In response, this article analyses the ILO’s harnessing of fair recruitment to the global governance of migration. Through engaging in significant knowledge production, the ILO has promoted ‘fair recruitment’ as a new norm, generating consensus, despite its absence from international legal standards. In utilising multiple and varied tools, the article argues that the FRI is an example of the ‘coordinated governance’ which the ILO has had to pragmatically resort to in externally and internally challenging environments, and regardless of whether states have ratified its main convention on recruitment, C181. However, as of 2022, the concept of fair recruitment remains a muted challenge to the hegemonic precarity and inequalities associated with international labour migration in the 21st century.
2014年,国际劳工组织(ILO)发起了公平招聘倡议(FRI),旨在解决与招聘低工资移民工人广泛相关的劳动剥削问题。迄今为止,学者们在很大程度上忽视了国际劳工组织在发展“公平招聘”作为全球社会政策机制方面的作用。作为回应,本文分析了国际劳工组织利用公平招聘对全球移民治理的影响。通过参与重要的知识生产,国际劳工组织促进了“公平招聘”作为一种新规范,产生了共识,尽管它缺乏国际法律标准。文章认为,在利用多种多样的工具方面,FRI是国际劳工组织在外部和内部充满挑战的环境中不得不务实地诉诸的“协调治理”的一个例子,无论各国是否批准了其关于招聘的主要公约C181。然而,截至2022年,公平招聘的概念仍然是对21世纪与国际劳动力迁移相关的霸权不稳定和不平等的温和挑战。

The ILO World Employment Program research agenda on development and migration 劳工组织世界就业方案关于发展和移徙的研究议程
IF 1.5 Q2 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2022-04-14 DOI: 10.1177/14680181221079202

The International Labour Organization (ILO) seeks to build consensus for a ‘fair migration agenda’ while linking development goals with the rights of migrant workers across national borders. Since the main drivers of international migration are employment-related, this is a topic of extreme concern for the readers of this special issue. Given the differences between nations and regions – between labor sending and labor receiving countries – promoting such an agenda is complicated, and ILO labor standards apply almost exclusively to workers crossing international borders. Nations aim to provide opportunities for their citizens, and international movement, in the words of an ILO specialist in migration from years ago, remains a second-best option compared to securing decent work at home. The challenge is how to nurture opportunities in countries that lack the resources and capital but have ample numbers looking for remunerative work. This article evaluates an historical example of attention to both development and migration in the 1970s and 1980s. Linking the dynamics of domestic migration, economic growth, and the structure of labor markets in poorer nations, I evaluate two important concepts that stemmed from research of this era: surplus labor and basic human needs. Through review of historical documents, including archival material and a multiplicity of reports, papers, and strategy guidelines, I seek to describe ILO projects and proposals meant to deal, simultaneously, with poverty, migration, and development.
国际劳工组织(ILO)寻求就“公平移民议程”达成共识,同时将发展目标与跨境移民工人的权利联系起来。由于国际移民的主要驱动因素与就业有关,这是本期特刊读者极为关注的话题。考虑到国家和地区之间的差异——劳动力派遣国和劳动力接收国之间的差异,推动这样的议程是复杂的,国际劳工组织的劳工标准几乎只适用于跨越国际边界的工人。各国的目标是为其公民提供机会,用国际劳工组织几年前移民问题专家的话来说,与在国内获得体面工作相比,国际流动仍然是第二好的选择。挑战在于如何在那些缺乏资源和资本但有大量人在寻找有报酬的工作的国家培养机会。本文评价了20世纪70年代和80年代关注发展和移民的一个历史例子。将国内移民的动态、经济增长和较贫穷国家的劳动力市场结构联系起来,我评估了源于这个时代研究的两个重要概念:剩余劳动力和人类基本需求。通过审查历史文件,包括档案材料和大量报告、文件和战略指导方针,我试图描述国际劳工组织旨在同时处理贫困、移民和发展问题的项目和建议。

Towards an understanding of mobility in social policy research 对社会政策研究中流动性的理解
IF 1.5 Q2 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2022-04-05 DOI: 10.1177/14680181221085477
Cecilia Bruzelius, Isabel Shutes
Over recent years, there has been increasing attention to migration in social policy research. Uniting this research has been a focus on cross-national migration, and predominantly immigration. In the meantime, the relationship between human mobility and social policy at other scales and sites has gained much less attention. This is in spite of the salience of multiple forms of mobility and measures for restricting, facilitating or promoting mobility not confined to the territorial borders of the nation-state. This article proposes an alternative mobility perspective for social policy research that moves us beyond the limitations of current migration approaches. To do so, we draw on interdisciplinary mobilities theory and research. Empirically, we apply a mobility perspective to examine how systems of social provision are shaped by and shape mobility and immobility, in restricting, facilitating or promoting the movement of people. We argue that such an approach allows us to frame and address questions that place mobility and immobility as central to the social relations of welfare, advancing our understanding of how social policies can reduce or reinforce the inequalities of mobility.
近年来,在社会政策研究中,人们越来越关注移民问题。将这项研究结合起来,重点关注跨国移民,主要是移民。与此同时,在其他规模和地点,人类流动性与社会政策之间的关系却很少受到关注。尽管多种形式的流动以及限制、便利或促进流动的措施并不局限于民族国家的领土边界,但这一点仍然很突出。本文为社会政策研究提出了另一种流动性视角,使我们超越了当前移民方法的局限性。为此,我们借鉴了跨学科流动性理论和研究。从经验上讲,我们应用流动性视角来研究社会保障体系是如何由流动性和不动性形成的,以及如何限制、促进或促进人员流动。我们认为,这种方法使我们能够构建和解决将流动性和不流动性作为福利社会关系核心的问题,从而加深我们对社会政策如何减少或加强流动性不平等的理解。

In Latin America, approximately 70 million individuals live with a disability. Although global evidence suggests that people with disabilities are one of the poorest groups and present lower employment rates, the evidence for Latin America is still weak. This article aims to contribute to the literature by estimating and analysing the levels of employment opportunity for persons with disabilities in six countries in Latin America (Chile, Bolivia, Mexico, Peru, Colombia, and Costa Rica). Using household survey data, we measure inequality of opportunities using the Paes de Barros approach and compare the probability distributions of being employed for people with disabilities according to different individual characteristics. This research makes several contributions to the literature. First, it analyses and compares the characteristics of persons with disabilities in six countries of the region. Second, it is the first paper in the region that computes and compares the levels of employment opportunities for persons with disabilities, using the Human Opportunity Index. Third, it analyses which are the main aspects contributing to the levels of employment opportunities for persons with disabilities in each of the countries. The main results of the study reveal that people with disabilities face high levels of inequality of employment opportunity compared with people without disabilities in the six countries. Peru shows the lowest disadvantage, with higher coverage of opportunities for people with disabilities. Colombia and Costa Rica were the countries where this group presents the largest disadvantages to be employed. In addition, women with disabilities and people with disabilities living in rural areas have a lower probability of being employed compared with people without disabilities. These findings reveal that policies in the region aiming to include this group in the labour market have not been effective, and there is a necessity to guarantee the proper labour inclusion of this group.
在拉丁美洲,约有7000万残疾人。尽管全球证据表明残疾人是最贫穷的群体之一,就业率较低,但拉丁美洲的证据仍然薄弱。本文旨在通过估计和分析拉丁美洲六个国家(智利、玻利维亚、墨西哥、秘鲁、哥伦比亚和哥斯达黎加)残疾人的就业机会水平,为文献做出贡献。利用家庭调查数据,我们使用Paes de Barros方法测量了机会的不平等,并根据不同的个人特征比较了残疾人就业的概率分布。这项研究对文献做出了一些贡献。首先,分析和比较了该地区六个国家残疾人的特点。其次,这是该地区第一篇使用人类机会指数计算和比较残疾人就业机会水平的论文。第三,它分析了每个国家残疾人就业机会水平的主要因素。研究的主要结果表明,与六个国家的非残疾人相比,残疾人在就业机会方面面临着高度的不平等。秘鲁的劣势最低,残疾人的机会覆盖率更高。哥伦比亚和哥斯达黎加是这一群体就业劣势最大的国家。此外,与非残疾人相比,残疾妇女和生活在农村地区的残疾人就业的概率较低。这些调查结果表明,该地区旨在将这一群体纳入劳动力市场的政策并不有效,有必要保证这一群体的适当劳动力融入。

Introduction: COVID-19: Lessons for gender-responsive recovery and transformation 导言:2019冠状病毒病:促进性别平等的复苏和转型的经验教训

COVID-19 has been unique among recent crises in the swift attention directed to gender impacts and inequalities in relation both to the initial pandemic and to the economic and social crises that followed. Gender equality activists, advocates and researchers mobilized at extraordinary speed to raise concerns on issues from health, violence and care to employment and social protection. They rapidly formed networks and groups, collecting data, monitoring impacts and policy responses, and making efforts to hold governments and international organizations to account. Thanks to these efforts, the gendered impacts of the interlinked health, economic and social crises have been well-documented and widely publicized.1 While initially men appeared most adversely affected by COVID-19, it quickly became apparent that women – who make up 70 per cent of the global health workforce – were more exposed. The subsequent public health response, including varying degrees of lockdown, had other dramatic consequences for women, including increasing care burdens, rising levels of domestic violence and a disproportionate loss of jobs and working hours due to their concentration in hard hit sectors and their role as default unpaid care providers. National policy responses to the economic crisis, including social protection, job protection or labour furlough measures, bypassed many in informal or non-standard employment, again with women often disproportionately excluded from such measures. Most early analyses drew predominantly on evidence from the global North, examining national social policy responses, and often highlighting the gaps and limitations of policy responses in addressing women’s needs or gendered inequalities. This Forum takes a more global perspective, both geographically and in terms of levels of analysis. It brings together feminist researchers and advocates from civil society, academia, and
在最近的危机中,COVID-19的独特之处在于,在最初的大流行以及随后的经济和社会危机中,人们迅速关注了性别影响和不平等问题。性别平等活动家、倡导者和研究人员以极快的速度动员起来,提出对从健康、暴力和护理到就业和社会保护等问题的关切。他们迅速建立了网络和团体,收集数据,监测影响和政策反应,并努力让政府和国际组织承担责任。由于这些努力,相互关联的保健、经济和社会危机对性别的影响得到了充分的记录和广泛的宣传虽然最初男性似乎受COVID-19的不利影响最大,但很快就发现,占全球卫生人力70%的女性受到的影响更大。随后的公共卫生应对措施,包括不同程度的封锁,对妇女产生了其他严重后果,包括护理负担增加、家庭暴力水平上升,以及由于她们集中在受打击严重的部门以及作为默认无偿护理提供者的角色,工作和工作时间的损失不成比例。国家对经济危机的政策反应,包括社会保护、工作保护或劳工休假措施,绕过了许多非正规或非标准就业,妇女往往不成比例地被排除在这些措施之外。大多数早期分析主要利用来自全球北方的证据,审查国家社会政策反应,并经常强调政策反应在解决妇女需求或性别不平等方面的差距和局限性。无论在地理上还是在分析层面上,本论坛都具有更加全球化的视角。它汇集了来自民间社会、学术界和
