The International Labour Organization (ILO) has launched a global Fair Recruitment Initiative (ILO-FAIR) to help prevent human trafficking, to protect the rights of workers, including migrant workers, from abusive and fraudulent practices during the recruitment and placement process, and to reduce the cost of labour migration and enhance development gains.
This multi-stakeholder initiative is based on a four-pronged approach, which puts social dialogue at the centre, and is implemented in close collaboration with governments, representative employers’ and workers’ organisations, the private sector and other key partners.
