The ILO Staff Union Committee is pleased to announce the success of negotiations that were conducted during the past few days with the Administration. All staff have a copy of the letter from the Director- General to the President of the Staff Union, confirming the points of agreement that have been reached. The Staff Union is now recognized again as a full partner in the collective bargaining process at the ILO, which is essential to solve the difficulties encountered daily by staff. The motion for a strike was cancelled.

This is hopefully the beginning of a new era that will allow us to make concrete progress on a variety of fronts in the near future. If we achieved this, it is above all thanks to you all!

Through your mobilization, both at headquarters and in each office in the field, you have contributed greatly to the success of these efforts. We thank you warmly for this.

We will soon organize an information meeting to present in detail the contents of the agreement.
