19 The ILO's commitment to tripartism and social dialogue Tripartism and social dialogue are integral components of "decent and productive work, for all women and men, and constitute essential channels for achieving this "in conditions of freedom, equity, security and human dignity.
20 Tripartite cooperation refers to "all dealings between the government and workers and employers organisations concerning the formulation and implementation of economic and social policy", while social dialogue includes "all types of negotiation, consultation or simply exchange of information between, or among, representatives of governments, employers and workers, on issues of common interest relating to economic and social policy."
21 The resolution concerning tripartism and social dialogue, adopted at the 90th Session of the International Labour Conference in 2002, invited governments of member States "to ensure that the necessary preconditions exist for social dialogue, including respect for the fundamental principles and the right to freedom of association and collective bargaining, a sound industrial relations environment, and respect for the role of the social partners" in achieving employment goals and improving social protection.
22 Social dialogue in the world s ports The social partners in the port industry have, for many years, acknowledged the contribution that social dialogue can make to both efficient operations and decent work. Social dialogue in good faith is still the most effective way of preventing conflict, in so far as possible.
23 ILO Dock Work Recommendation, 1973 (No. 145) "Where it does not already exist, appropriate joint industrial machinery should be set up with a view to creating a climate of confidence and cooperation between dockworkers and employers in which social and technical change can be brought about without tension and conflict and grievances promptly settled".
24 The 1995 ILO Regional Seminar on Social and Labour Effects of Structural Adjustment in the Port Industry of Selected Asian and Pacific Countries concluded that "successful and lasting reforms are achieved when the consequences and implications of these reforms have been fully discussed and agreed with the social partners well in advance.
25 ILO support for social dialogue The ILO supports social dialogue through a range of activities, principally: Standard-setting Technical assistance/policy advice ACTRAV, ACT/EMP and other ILO departments (e.g. Social Dialogue, Labour Law, Labour Administration and Sectoral Activities Department) International Training Centre, Turin
26 Part B: The ILO Practical Guidance Manual on Social Dialogue in the Process of Structural Adjustment and Private Sector Participation in Ports
27 The Need for Institutions and Capacity for Social Dialogue Port reform is a continual process that takes place at different rates and from different starting points according to circumstances. There is, therefore, no universal standard formula for port restructuring. Consequently, in order to ensure that the issues concerning structural adjustment in ports are effectively addressed in a transparent manner, the institutions and capacity for social dialogue between the parties concerned need to be in place and might need to be strengthened.
