- Abstract
This paper discusses the impact of the activities of the International Labor Organization (ILO) on the Indian labor scene. ILO has rendered exemplary service to all the three elements composing it--government, employers and workers. India has greatly benefitted from the ILO standards which helped in improving the lot of the working class. ILO standards have greatly influenced labor legislation, labor welfare, trade unionism and industrial relations. Following ILO tradition, the principle of tripartite consultation has been successfully adopted by the Government of India in the formulation of labor policy on the basis of consensus. In essence, there is a close resemblance between the ILO Philadelphia Charter of 1944 and the Fundamental Rights and the Directive Principles of State Policy under the Indian Constitution. The paper also states that all these basic documents are based on the principles of freedom, individual dignity and social justice.
