The General Survey will be discussed in a tripartite manner in the Committee on Application of Standards (CAS) of the International Labour Conference in June to adopt a tripartite outcome.

Specialists in your organisation are now invited to comment on the survey to prepare the Employers' position for the discussion at the 2022 CAS. In particular, we invite you to comment on the conclusions (paragraphs 1083-1096) and the paragraphs concerning your respective country.
