“ITUC Contribution to public consultation on human rights impact assessments for economic reforms” 

The ITUC welcomes the development of human rights impact assessment guidelines for economic reforms and stresses that they should fully consider impacts on the enjoyment of social rights, including labour rights. These guidelines should be applied consistently for national-level reforms. They should also be applied by international organisations in the development of their economic policies and by international financial institutions if applying economic policy conditions to their lending agreements.
