11 April - International Labour Organization was established

 

The International Labour Organization (ILO) was established on April 11, 1919. As part of the Treaty of Versailles, which marked the end of World War I, the ILO was created with the purpose of promoting social justice and improving working conditions worldwide. Since its inception, the ILO has been working to set labor standards, develop policies to enhance workplace conditions, and provide assistance to member states in addressing labor-related issues. It continues to play a vital role in advocating for the rights of workers globally.
