NDLI: Labour

Content Provider	OECD iLibrary
Organization	OECD
Abstract	Labour issues are central to the prospects for achieving fair and sustainable development. The ILO estimates that more than a billion women and men are unemployed, underemployed, or working poor. An estimated 300 million new jobs will be needed by 2015 to absorb new entrants to the labour market, most of them youth and women. But even among those at work, earnings, working conditions and career prospects are often meagre. Around 40 to 45% of the world’s employed are unable to earn enough to lift themselves and their families above the USD 2 per day poverty line, and millions work in hazardous conditions. Throughout the world, the poorest and least protected – often women, children, the low-skilled and migrants – are among the most affected. More than 200 million children in the world today are involved in child labour, and at least 12.3 million people are trapped in forced labour.
