Convention concerning vocational rehabilitation and employment (disabled persons) : a brief analysis

Abstract

As part of its broad mandate of promoting social justice in order to establish universal and lasting peace, (1) the International Labour Organization has been concerned, since its inception, with taking measures aimed at establishing employment equity among workers. This objective has necessarily entailed the formulation of Conventions, Recommendations, Policies, Programmes and more particularly international labour standards, to redress inequality and to promote the well being of all peoples.
