Statute overview

About this statute

Ratifying ILO members must end forced or compulsory labour as quickly as possible, while temporary recourse is allowed only for public purposes, exceptionally, and under later-provided conditions and guarantees. This article defines forced or compulsory labour and lists specific kinds of work or service that are not included. This article defines “competent authority” as either an authority of the metropolitan country or the highest central authority in the territory concerned. The competent authority must not impose or allow forced or compulsory labour for private benefit, and a Member must eliminate such labour if it exists when ratification is registered. Concessions must not require forced or compulsory labour, and any existing concession terms that do so should be removed as soon as possible.
