Denne uken omtalte FNs generalsekretær for politikk, Guy Ryder, FNs sikkerhetsråd som dysfunksjonelt. I en verden sterkt preget av krig og konflikt, er det internasjonale rettssystemet svært relevant. Hvordan fungerer det egentlig? Hvem bestemmer? Og hva er forskjellen på FNs sikkerhetsråd, ICC og ICJ? Reporter: Synne Berg.
Jukwaa la ngazi ya juu la kisiasa kuhusu ,malengo ya maendeleo endelevu lijulikanalo kama HLPF limeanza leo kwenye makao makuu ya Umoja wa Mataifa hapa New York Marekani chini ya mwamvuli wa baraza la kiuchumi na kijamii ECOSOC.Jukwaa hilo ambalo litakunja jamvi 20 Julai mwaka huu limebeba maudhui "Kuharakisha kujikwamua kutokana na janga la ugonjwa wa virusi vya corona au COVID-19 na utekelezaji kamili wa ajenda ya 2030 ya maendeleo endelevu katika ngazi zote".Mbali ya viongozi wa ngazi ya juu katikia jukwaa hilo kutakuwa na siku tatu za majadiliano katika ngazi ya mawaziri.Kwa mujibu wa ECOSOC jukwaa hilo “litajumuisha mapitio ya mada ya malengo ya maendeleo endelevu namba 6 kuhusu maji safi na usafi wa mazingira, namba 7 kuhusu nishati nafuu na safi, namba 9 linalohusu viwanda, uvumbuzi na miundombinu, namba 11 linalohusu miji na jamii endelevu, na namba 17 linalohusu ubia kwa ajili ya malengo.”Pia jukwaa hili ltashughulikia changamoto maalum zinazokabili nchi zilizo katika hali maalum. Zaidi ya hapo litathimini vipimo vya kikanda na vya ndani ya nchi kuhusu kujikwamua kutoka kwaenye janga la COVID-19 na hali kuhusu malengo ya maendeleo endelevu SDGs. Na kisha litaunga mkono mapitio ya muda wa kati wa malengo ya SDGs na maandalizi ya mkutano wa mwa ka huu 2023 wa SDG mutaotarajiwa kufanyika Septemba.Leo katika siku ya kwanza ya jukwaa hilo mada kuu zitakazopewa kipaumbele ni “kushinda majanga, kuleta mabadiliko kwa aajili ya SDGs, na kutomwacha mtu yeyote nyuma, Kufadhili hatua zetu za kukabiliana na majanga na kuwekeza katika SDGs.”Nchi 39 zikiwemo Tanzania, Rwanda na Zambia zitafanya mapitio ya kitaifa ya hiari (VNRs) ya utekelezaji wao wa ajenda ya 2030 ya malengo ya maendeleo endelevu katika katika jukwaa hilo la HLPF 2023.Miongoni mwa wazungumzaji wa leo katika jukwaa hilo ni wasaidizi wa Katibu Mkuu Li Junhua, Qu Dongyu ambaye ni mkuu wa shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la chakula na kilimo FAO, Guy Ryder ambaye ni msaidizi wa Katibu Mkuu kuhusu masuala ya sera, Mami Mizutori msaidizi wa Katibu Mkuu na mkuu wa ofisi ya Umoja wa Msataifa ya upunguzaji wa hatari ya majanga UNDDR, na Filippo Grandi ambaye ni Kamisha mkuu wa shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la kuhudumia wakimbizi UNHCR.
Hatua Madhubuti zinahitajika ili kukabiliana na changamoto za afya ya akili miongoni mwa wafanyakazi , kwa mujibu wa wito mpya wa pamoja uliotolewa leo na shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la afya ulimwenguni WHO na lile la kazi duniani ILO. Taarifa ya Anold Kayanda inafafanua zaidi. Machapisho mawili ambayo yote yanalenga ujumbe mmoja wa kushughulikia changamoto ya afya ya akili kazini ambayo ni muongozo mpya wa kimataifa wa WHO kuhusu afya ya akili na uwajibikaji kazini na tamko la pamoja la kisera la WHO na ILO, yanakadiria kwamba takriban siku bilioni 12 za kazi hupotea kila mwaka kutokana na matatizo ya msongo wa mawazo na wasiwasi vinaougharimu uchumi wa dunia karibu dola trilioni 1. Mwongozo huo mpya wa kimataifa wa WHO unapendekeza hatua za kukabiliana na hatari ya afya ya akili kama vile kudhibiti mzigo mkubwa wa kazi, tabia mbaya na mambo mengine ambayo husababisha adha kazini. Kwa mara ya kwanza WHO inapendekeza mafunzo ya mameneja, ili kuwajengea uwezo wa kuzuia mazingira ya kazi yenye kuongeza shinikizo na kushughulikia ipasavyo wafanyakazi walio katika changamoto. WHO imesema kazi huongeza changamoto za kijamii ambazo zinaathiri vibaya afya ya akili. Masuala kama ya ubaguzi na ukosefu wa usawa, uonevu na unyanyasaji wa kisaikolojia ni malalamiko makubwa ya unyanyasaji wa mahali pa kazi ambayo yana athari mbaya kwa afya ya akili lakini kujadili au kuzungumzia masuala ya afya ya akili bado ni mwiko katika mipangilio ya kazi ulimwenguni kote. Mwongozo huo pia unapendekeza njia bora zaidi za kushughulikia mahitaji ya wafanyikazi walio na changamoto za afya ya akili, kama kupendekeza hatua zitakazowasaidia kurejea kazini na kwa watu walio na hali mbaya ya afya ya akili pia muhimu zaidi, miongozo inataka uingiliaji kati unaolenga kulinda afya ya akili ya wahudumu wa afya, wa kibinadamu na wa dharura. Kwa mujibu wa Dkt. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus Mkurugenzi Mkuu wa WHO "Ni wakati wa kuzingatia athari mbaya ambazo kazi inaweza kuwa nazo kwa afya yetu ya akili. Ustawi wa mtu binafsi ni sababu tosha ya kuchukua hatua, lakini afya mbaya ya akili inaweza pia kuwa na athari ya kudhoofisha utendaji kazi na tija ya mtu. Miongozo hii mipya inaweza kusaidia kuzuia tamaduni na hali mbaya za kazi na kutoa ulinzi unaohitajika sana wa afya ya akili na usaidizi kwa watu wanaofanya kazi.” Nalo tamko la pamoja la kisera la WHO na ILO linafafanua miongozo hiyo ya WHO katika suala la mikakati ya kiutendaji kwa serikali, waajiri na wafanyakazi, na mashirika yao, katika sekta za umma na za kibinafsi. Lengo ni kusaidia uzuiaji wa hatari za afya ya akili, kulinda na kukuza afya ya akili kazini, na kusaidia wale walio na matatizo ya afya ya akili, ili waweze kushiriki na kustawi katika ulimwengu wa kazi. Akisisitiza kuhusu hilo Guy Ryder, mkurugenzi mkuu wa ILO amesema "Watu wanatumia sehemu kubwa ya maisha yao kazini hivyo mazingira salama na yenye afya ya kufanya kazi ni muhimu. Tunahitaji kuwekeza ili kujenga utamaduni wa kuzuia matatizo ya afya ya akili kazini, kuunda upya mazingira ya kazi ili kukomesha unyanyapaa na kutengwa kwa jamii, na kuhakikisha wafanyakazi walio na matatizo ya afya ya akili wanahisi kulindwa na kuungwa mkono.” WHO na ILO wamesema mwaka 2020, serikali ulimwenguni kote zilitumia wastani wa asilimia 2% tu ya bajeti zake za afya kwa ajili ya afya ya akili, huku nchi za kipato cha chini zikitenga chini ya 1% ya bajeti zake kwa ajili ya tatizo hilo.
The strike that wasn't, and one that was: from The Rick Smith Show and America's Workforce Radio, we have two reports on the issues that nearly forced tens of thousands of rail workers out on strike this week. Early Thursday morning, the Biden administration brokered a tentative agreement that, at least for now, has averted a nationwide rail strike. On Your Rights At Work, we hear from one of the 15,000 nurses in Minnesota who struck for three days this week over patient safety issues. And RadioLabour is back from its summer break with an interview with Guy Ryder, Director-General of the International Labour Organization. Our final show this week, Educating from the Heart, takes a look at how even art classes are not immune from the ongoing culture wars.

Watu milioni 50 walikuwa wakiishi katika utumwa wa kisasa mwaka jana 2021, kwa mujibu Ripoti ya hivi karibuni ya makadirio ya utumwa wa kisasa duniani ambayo imetolewa na shirika la Kazi la Umoja wa Mataifa, ILO, Wakfu wa Walk Free na Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Uhamiaji IOM. Taarifa inayowasilishwa na Anold Kayanda ina maelezo zaidi. Kwa mujibu wa taarifa iliyotolewa hii leo mjini Geniva nchini Uswisi, ILO, IOM na Wakfu wa Walk Free, makadirio ya hivi karibuni kupitia utafiti wao, yanaonesha kuwa kazi za kulazimishwa na ndoa za kulazimishwa zimeongezeka sana katika miaka mitano iliyopita. Watu milioni kumi zaidi walikuwa katika utumwa wa kisasa mwaka jana 2021 na hivyo kufikia watu milioni hamsini ikilinganishwa na makadirio ya kimataifa ya mwaka 2016. Wanawake na watoto wanabaki katika mazingira magumu kupita kiasi, umebaini utafiti. Kati ya watu hawa, milioni 28 walikuwa katika kazi ya kulazimishwa na milioni 22 wakiwa katika ndoa za kulazimishwa. Mkurugenzi Mkuu wa ILO, Guy Ryder kwa amenukuliwa kwa maskitiko akisema, "inashangaza kwamba hali ya utumwa wa kisasa haibadiliki. Hakuna kinachoweza kuhalalisha kuendelea kwa ukiukwaji huu wa kimsingi wa haki za binadamu.” Ripoti imeonesha kuwa wafanyakazi wahamiaji wana uwezekano wa zaidi ya mara tatu kuwa katika kazi ya kulazimishwa kuliko wafanyakazi wazima wasio wahamiaji ndio maana Mkurugenzi Mkuu wa IOM, amesema, “ripoti hii inasisitiza udharura wa kuhakikisha kwamba uhamiaji wote ni salama, wenye utaratibu na wa kawaida." Taarifa imeeleza kuwa utumwa wa kisasa unatokea karibu kila nchi duniani, na unapita katika misingi ya kikabila, kitamaduni na kidini. Zaidi ya nusu (asilimia 52) ya kazi zote za kulazimishwa na robo ya ndoa zote za kulazimishwa zinaweza kupatikana katika nchi zenye kipato cha juu au cha kati.
Neutral geht gar nicht - Debattenpodcast der Politischen Meinung
Im 10. Podcast Menschenrechte : nachgefragt der Politischen Meinung und der Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung e.V., sprechen wir mit Dr. Annette Niederfranke, Leiterin der Repräsentanz der Internationalen Arbeitsorganisation (ILO) in Berlin. Die ehemalige beamtete Staatssekretärin im Bundesministerium für Arbeit und Soziales (2011-2014), leitet das ILO-Büro bereits seit 2014 und hat unter anderem zu den Themen menschenwürdiger Arbeit in globalen Lieferketten, Arbeitsmigration und Wandel der Arbeitswelt gearbeitet und publiziert. Die ILO wurde bereits im Jahre 1919 gegründet und ist die älteste Sonderorganisation der Vereinten Nationen. Ihr Sitz ist in Genf. Deutschland ist seit 1954 eines von zehn ständigen Mitgliedern im Verwaltungsrat der ILO. Im Podcast sprechen wir über aktuelle Herausforderungen und warum die ILO auch nach 103 Jahren noch sehr wichtig ist: Was bedeutet der russische Angriffskrieg auf die Ukraine für die Arbeit der ILO? Vor dem Hintergrund der FIFA WM 2022 in Katar sprechen wir über das sogenannte Kafala-System, das die Gastarbeiter in Katar oft in ein Arbeitsverhältnis zwang, das als moderne Sklaverei bezeichnet wird. Was hat die ILO, die 2018 ein Büro in Katar eröffnen durfte, hier für einen verbesserten Arbeitsschutz erreicht? Und wie könnte die ILO in einen Prozess zur Entschädigung der Geschädigten eingebunden werden? Wir sprechen über China: Im Falle der Vorwürfe über Zwangsarbeit in der Autonomen Uiguren-Region Xinjiang hat die ILO sich im Februar 2022 ebenfalls besorgt gezeigt – im August 2022 wird China die ILO-Übereinkommen gegen Zwangsarbeit aus den Jahren 1930 und 1957 ratifizieren. Was muss sich in China jetzt praktisch ändern und welche Rolle spielt die ILO dabei? Außerdem sprechen wir bereits heute über die neuen Schätzungen der ILO zur modernen Sklaverei weltweit, die am 12. September 2022 öffentlich vorgestellt werden. Die letzten Schätzungen im Jahre 2017 hatten ergeben, dass weltweit 40 Millionen Menschen in Formen moderner Sklaverei leben, davon 25 Millionen Menschen in Zwangsarbeit. Wo stehen wir fünf Jahre später? Drohen wir bei der hier angestrebten Erreichung der Entwicklungsziele zu scheitern, wie ILO-Generaldirektor Guy Ryder dies 2017 befürchtet hat? Bereits 1992 hatte die ILO das wichtigste Programm zur Beseitigung der Kinderarbeit (IPEC) gestartet. 2002 hatten bereits von mehr als 100 Staaten ratifiziert worden, trotzdem schätzt die ILO heute die Zahl der Kinder, die Kinderarbeit leisten müssen, auf 160 Millionen – 63 Millionen Mädchen und 97 Millionen Jungen. Im Mai 2022 hat die ILO-Konferenz zur Beseitigung der Kinderarbeit in Durban (Südafrika) stattgefunden – was hat sie erreicht und welche Initiativen der ILO zur Verhinderung von Kinderarbeit soll es künftig geben? Die EU-Kommission hat im Februar 2022 ihren Richtlinienvorschlag eines europäischen Lieferkettensorgfaltspflichtengesetzes vorgestellt. In Deutschland ist man bereits einen Schritt weiter und wird ein nationales Lieferkettengesetz schon im Jahre 2023 einführen. Wie beurteilt die ILO diese Gesetze, die vor allem Kinderarbeit und Zwangsarbeit in den Lieferketten verhindern sollen und verbindlichen Charakter haben? Wie berät die ILO die Unternehmen über die erforderlichen Risikoanalysen? Im Oktober 2022 wird erstmals ein Afrikaner, der Togolese Gilbert Fossoun Hounbou, das Amt des 11. ILO-Generaldirektors übernehmen. Welche Herausforderungen warten auf ihn – insbesondere mit Blick auf den afrikanischen Kontinent? Und was hat der scheidende 10. ILO-Generaldirektor, Guy Ryder, in den zehn Jahren seiner zwei Amtsperioden für die ILO erreicht? Wie hat die ILO zum Ende der Apartheit in Südafrika und zur Legalisierung der freien Gewerkschaft Solidarnosc in Polen beigetragen? Und last but not least: Welche drei Wünsche für die weitere Arbeit der ILO hat die Direktorin der ILO-Berlin im 104. Jahr des Bestehens ihrer Organisation?
There's no time to lose if we're to ensure that the world after COVID-19 is fairer, more inclusive and more sustainable, UN labour agency chief Guy Ryder insists. In an interview with UN News' Daniel Johnson, the International Labour Organization (ILO) Director-General also offers some refreshing advice: There should be “no more programmes” and “no more plans…let's just get down to the rock face and start making progress together". Here he is now, speaking after the Global Forum for a Human-centred Recovery at ILO headquarters in Geneva. He begins with an assessment of the human and economic cost of the global health crisis.

Building back better is about more than supply chains, innovations, and carbon. Fundamentally, it's about us. On this episode of Climate Biz, we're talking jobs and tackle how to create a "just transition" with Guy Ryder, Director general of the International Labour Organization. 2:47 -- What do we mean by Just Transition? 5:30 -- Energy Jobs and the Just Transition 6:47 -- Transitions in Geography 11:22 -- Supply Chain and Labor 14:00 -- Women and the Just Transition 16:42 -- Green Sprouts 19:58 -- Fairy Godmother's Wish
De acuerdo con la publicación de la Organización Mundial del Trabajo (OIT) "Perspectivas sociales y del empleo en el mundo 2022", se estima que en el presente año, el desempleo mundial se situará en 207 millones de personas desocupadas, en comparación con los 186 millones de 2019."Tras dos años de crisis, la perspectiva sigue siendo frágil y la vía hacia la recuperación es lenta e incierta. Ya estamos observando daños potencialmente duraderos en el mercado de trabajo, junto con un preocupante aumento de la pobreza y la desigualdad. En muchos casos, los trabajadores se están viendo obligados a cambiar a un tipo diferente de trabajo, por ejemplo, en respuesta a la prolongada caída de los viajes y el turismo internacional", dijo el director general de la OIT, Guy Ryder.Para entender más este tema, nos acompaña Jesús López, subdirector de Análisis Económico y Financiero de Banco Base
The head of the UN labour agency warns that a recovery in the international labour market is still a long way off, with a lot of uncertainty for workers and businesses, hoping for the economy to bounce back. Guy Ryder, the Director-General of the International Labour Organization (ILO), spoke to UN News at the launch of the agency's World Employment and Social Outlook Trends (WESO) 2022 report, which offers gloomy projections of increased unemployment, and widening inequality between developed and developing countries. Conor Lennon from UN News asked Mr. Ryder why the estimate is so dramatically different from the previous report, released in June of last year.

In his address to the IIEA, Guy Ryder, Director-General of the International Labour Organization, argues that the pandemic is continuing to have tremendous impacts on employment and at a global level labour market recovery is flat-lining, with enduring damage to many groups and sectors. He argues that comprehensive global responses are needed to address the challenges we face. In his address, Mr Ryder shares his perspective on the future of work and discusses how the world can develop an approach that puts workers at the heart of our economic policy in the years ahead. About the Speaker: Guy Ryder was first elected Director-General of the International Labour Organization in 2012 and started a second term in 2017. His vision is for an ILO that anticipates and responds effectively to 21st century realities, reaching the most vulnerable and remaining true to its social justice mandate. From 2006-10 he was General Secretary of the International Trade Union Confederation, having led the unification of the democratic international trade union movement. He is a graduate of Cambridge University.
As the world works its way through the pandemic, so does Covid-19 in changing the world of work. The arrangements and prohibitions that seemed impossible only a few years ago are now commonplace, while some of the things we used to take for granted are no more. What kind of a new labour reality is Covid-19 inducing? How can we cope with the labour pains it's causing? To discuss this, Oksana is joined by Guy Ryder, director-general of the International Labour Organization.
Guy Ryder, ILO Director General, and László Andor, FEPS Secretary General analyse in this episode the main transformative challenges in the world of work: new technology, climate change, digitalisation and aging population. The International Labour Organisation proposed innovative solutions in three different fields: people and their capacities (social protection, lifelong learning), institutions of work (labour regulations/law) and jobs of the future (green economy, care economy etc.). The two speakers agree that the European Union's example, even if not perfect, offers many forward-looking examples also for the rest of the world. They bring to our attention the problem of rising inequality and the very uneven recovery experience from COVID 19 in advanced economies and developing countries, even if the pandemic highlighted that global challenges need global responses, and stronger multilateral structures in the long-run.
Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Elimu, Sayansi na Utamaduni, UNESCO na wadau wake linasema ufufuaji wa elimu unaofanikiwa unategemea kuongezeka kwa uwekezaji katika ustawi, mafunzo, ukuzaji wa kitaalam na hali ya ufanyaji kazi ya waalimu milioni 71 ulimwenguni ili kurejea katika hali nzuri baada ya kupotea kwa muda wa masomo kutokana na Covid-19. Taarifa ya Lucy Igogo ina maelezo zaidi. Huo ndio ujumbe muhimu wa Siku ya Walimu Duniani, siku inayoadhimishwa kila tarehe 5 mwezi Oktoba, mwaka huu ikiwa na kauli mbiu "Walimu katika kiini cha kupona kwa elimu." Siku hii inatoa wito kwa serikali na jamii ya kimataifa kuzingatia walimu na changamoto zinazoikabili taaluma ya walimu. Katika taarifa ya pamoja, wakuu wa mashirika waandaaji wa maadhimisho ya siku hii ya Walimu Duniani, Mkurugenzi Mkuu wa UNESCO, Augrey Azoulay, Mkurugenzi Mtendaji wa shirika la Umoja wa Mataufa la kuhudumia watoto, UNICEF, Henrietha Fore, Mkurugenzi Mkuu wa Shirika la kimataifa la kazi ILO, Guy Ryder na Katibu Mkuu wa shirika la Education International Bwana David Edwards wamesema, “leo tunasherehekea kujitolea kwa kipekee na ujasiri wa walimu wote, uwezo wao wa kubadilika na ubunifu katika hali ngumu sana na isiyo na uhakika. Ndio wahusika wakuu wa juhudi za kufufua elimu ulimwenguni na ni muhimu katika kuharakisha maendeleo kuelekea elimu bora iliyo jumuishi na yenye usawa kwa kila mwanafunzi, katika kila hali.” Viongozi hao wameongeza wakisema, “sasa ni wakati wa kutambua jukumu la kipekee la walimu na kuwawezesha na mafunzo, ukuzaji wa taaluma, msaada na mazingira ya kazi wanayohitaji kupeleka vipaji au talanta zao. Ufufuaji wa elimu utafanikiwa ikiwa utafanywa kwa mkono na walimu, kuwapa sauti na nafasi ya kushiriki katika kufanya uamuzi.” Uvurugwaji elimu uliosababishwa na Covid-19 umeonesha jukumu muhimu la walimu katika kudumisha mwendelezo wa ujifunzaji. Walimu wamekuwa kiini cha kielimu, kuanzia katika kutumia teknolojia kwa ubunifu hadi kutoa msaada wa kijamii na kihisia kwa wanafunzi wao na kufikia wale walio katika hatari zaidi ya kurudi nyuma pia Covid-19 imeziweka wazi changamoto kubwa zinazoikabili taaluma ya ualimu, pamoja na ukosefu wa fursa za maendeleo ya kazi katika ufundishaji mtandaoni na ujifunzaji kwa njia ya masafa, kuongezeka kwa mzigo wa kazi unaohusishwa na madarasa ya zamu mbili. Kwa mujibu wa utafiti wa UNESCO, asilimia 71 ya nchi zimewapa kipaumbele walimu katika chanjo, lakini ni nchi 19 tu ndizo zilizowajumuisha walimu katika chanjo ya kwanza, wakati nchi 59 hazijawapa kipaumbele walimu katika mipango yao ya chanjo.
Welcome to the 11th episode of the Talent Intelligence Collective Podcast! Where we, meaning me and my far more talented co-hosts Alison Ettridge and Toby Culshaw, and Nick Brooks the wonderful Gerrit Schimmelpenninck from Philips. After our usual pleasantries, Toby dived straight in with his update on the happening within the world of Talent Intelligence. We started by discussing a recently released article by Indeed, Employer Use of Hiring Incentives Grows. The article states that job searches for hiring incentives, such as signing bonuses, retention bonuses, and cash incentives, have jumped 134% since the beginning of the year. Not only have searches gone up, but job postings advertising hiring incentives has also doubled since last July. I think that a great sign as to how hot the market is at the moment. – TOBY CULSHAW Hiring incentives have always been around for more senior roles, so what is really interesting is how this is now trickling down into more junior roles. We all know there are skills that are hard to find, cause perhaps they are hard to learn. But what this increase is telling is that the search for specific talent is expanding to the rest of the labour market. – ALAN WALKER Toby continued with his worldly updates pivoting our chat to something that many may not have thought about. As we begin to see many companies returning to office-based work, could this be the end of the baby boomer workforce? As many will likely be debating if there is worth in re-joining the commuting rat race. Will we see a much larger than usual surge of retirements during the rest of this year? And will that mean to the labour market? I think this is when we should talk about forecasting. We just all assume a constant supply. But there is no allowing for a big event that could cause a massive change. So I'm really excited to see if some of the economic forecasts pickup on it. – ALISON ETTRIDGE The final piece of news for this episode that Toby shared was around a quote from the International Labour Organisation's Director-General, Guy Ryder. He underlined that unless deliberate action is taken to protect the labour market, the world of work will become even more unjust, less inclusive and ultimately less sustainable. At which point I felt like we had heard everyone's opinion about the world and its news, but we were eager to find out more about our guest, Gerrit. His world, his background. So I virtually passed the mic onto our resident hard-hitting interviewer extraordinaires – Alison and Nick (through me, via chat). We find out about Gerrit's university degree in history and how it may or may not have helped his Talent Intelligence career. And where Gerrit feels that his role as Senior Talent Intelligence Manager at Philips sits. In analytics, or a commercial role, or a broader role. And the type of projects that his team would get involved in. The thing with Talent Intelligence is that is hard to convey the value of it, without showing the work. So you need to be confident and show how much value you can bring to any department. – GERRIT SCHIMMELPENNINCK As always, we hope you enjoy the episode. All we ask in return is your help in telling the world. This podcast needs your support to reach as many ears as possible.

The UN has predicted it could take two years for the world job market to recover from the Coronavirus pandemic. The hardest hit could be young jobseekers, who had almost got a foot in the door before it closed. We'll hear from young people around the world, who have found their employment prospects shattered by the pandemic. We'll also hear from Guy Ryder, Director-General of the International Labour Organisation, about how the pandemic could exacerbate inequality around the world. At the same time, Mamta Murthi of the World Bank breaks down how progress for young women in the workplace could be rolled back by decades. Finally, Daniel Susskind from Oxford University, explains why those lost jobs might never come back. Producer: Frey Lindsay (Image credit: Getty Creative)
The world will recover from the economic shock of the COVID pandemic, the International Labour Organization (or ILO) said on Wednesday in a new report, but only if poorer nations receive some financial assistance to get back on their feet. In an interview with UN News's Daniel Johnson, ILO chief Guy Ryder, explains that unlike the last global financial crisis in 2008-9, that affected mainly wealthier countries, the current downturn has hit developing nations hardest.

China's president Xi Jinping has spoken to a virtual meeting of the World Economic Forum. Dr Yu Jie is senior research fellow on China at Chatham House, and discusses what he had to say. Also in the programme, the UN's International Labour Organisation says that as a result of the pandemic, 93% of the planet's workforce is subject to restrictions on what they can and can't do. We find out more from the ILO's director general, Guy Ryder. In Uganda, many citizens have turned to virtual private networks to get round government internet restrictions in the wake of this month's general election. But the government is now cracking down and threatening anyone using VPNs with prosecution, as the BBC's Patience Atuhaire explains from Kampala. Plus the BBC's Benjie Guy reports on why two Hollywood stars have come to the aid of Wrexham football club in north Wales.
The UK has become the first country in the world to approve the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine. We discuss the implications with Penny Ward, visiting professor in pharmaceutical medicine at King's College London, who has advised companies on drug and device development. Also in the programme, the International Labour Organisation says the pandemic is likely to inflict massive downward pressure on wages, with women and low-paid workers disproportionately hit. Guy Ryder is director general of the ILO, and brings us the details. Plus, with many people working from home, the BBC's Ed Butler asks whether we've reached the end of the era of the suited businessman. Fergus Nicoll is joined for comment throughout the programme by Rachel Cartland in Hong Kong and Dr John Halamka in Boston, USA.

And this is, unfortunately, the very dramatic reality we risk confronting many people with...It’s a simple issue of social protection; we need to get not tomorrow but today, direct transfers of cash and resources of these people desperately in need.”
The International Labour Congress says almost 25 million jobs could be lost worldwide as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. ILO Director-General, Guy Ryder, said this in a statement in Abuja on Thursday. He said the findings was according to a new assessment by the ILO. According to him, the impact and responses of COVID-19 calls for urgent, large-scale and coordinated measures across three pillars. He noted that the three pillars are protecting workers in the workplace, stimulating the economy and employment, and supporting jobs and incomes. Ryder also said the ILO estimates that between 8.8 and 35 million additional people would be in working poverty worldwide, compared to the original estimate for 2020, which projected a decline of 14 million worldwide. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/newscast-africa/support Learn more about your ad choices.

Almost 500 million people around the world do not have jobs or lack access to decent jobs, according to the United Nations' International Labour Organization (ILO). The ILO releases its World Employment and Social Outlook (WESO) report annually to share updates and trends in employment, unemployment, and labor issues. For 2020, the report highlights the increasing unemployment rate, lack of opportunity for people to work more paid hours, and insufficiency of jobs for the growing workforce. This year, the number of jobless people is expected to increase by 2.5 million. According to the ILO, unemployment around the world has been considerably steady for almost a decade. However, because of the slow growth of economies globally, the number of available jobs cannot keep up with the increasing workforce. Findings also show that the global working population experiences income inequality, especially in developing countries. From 2020 to 2021, working people whose incomes fall below US$3.20 per day are also expected to increase. ILO chief Guy Ryder said the current global employment conditions make it difficult for many people to improve the quality of their lives through work. The agency warns that the current labor trend is partially to blame for the global social unrest, such as the recent protests in Lebanon and Chile. To create long-term solutions, the ILO recommends boosting all countries' economies with the aim of reducing poverty and improving work conditions in developing nations. Shifting the focus of a country's economic activity, such as prioritizing agriculture over manufacturing or vice versa, can be effective. The agency also considers technological advancement as a valuable element in economic development.

The world faces complex challenges posed by a growing and aging population, forced migration, persistent poverty, urbanization, and a series of technological disruptions impacting labor. The world needs 600 million new jobs over the next 15 years just to keep up with current demand. If channeled correctly, population growth could lead to a demographic dividend. Otherwise, this wave of human energy will be lost. The adage remains true: the best social program (and best national security policy) is a job. Institutions like the International Labor Organization (ILO) have many roles to play in this changing world: agenda setter, capacity builder, convener, and trusted partner. A tri-partite organization made up of government, labor, and the private sector, the ILO seeks to bridge differences and build a common approach. The ILO was stood up in the belief that societies are interdependent and that labor unions need thriving businesses that, in turn, want clear rules of the game and a productive and happy workforce. As the ILO approaches 100 years of service, it has formed a Global Commission on the Future of Work. The Global Commission has convened several national dialogues seeking to understand the future of work and the changing roles of diverse stakeholders in society. Please join us for a discussion with Guy Ryder, the Director-General of the ILO as we discuss the role of the ILO in this changing context. This event is made possible by generous support from the International Labor Organization.
