Abstract
Examines the effects of economic structural adjustment programmes on employers and workers. Advocates a tripartite consultation approach whereby workers' and employers' representatives are encouraged to participate alongside governments in economic and social policy formulation, from an early stage. Discusses the results of five case studies carried out by the ILO to assess the extent of tripartite co-operation in Argentina, India, Mexico, the Philippines and Zambia. Concludes that the nature of tripartite consultation greatly reflects the type of labour relations system - corporatist, pluralistic or emergent - in a particular country. Makes suggestions for future improvements to the whole structural adjustment process.
