The COVID-19 pandemic with its far reaching socio-economic consequences calls for effective bipartite social dialogue and cooperation to design win-win solutions for both parties. To elaborate the importance of bipartite dialogues between employers and workers, Better Work Indonesia, a joint programme of the ILO and International Finance Cooperation (IFC) on labour compliance, conducted an online discussion regarding social dialogue at the workplace.
The discussion was part of the series of the Better Work Indonesia’s social media engagement through live Instagram aired every Sunday. These advocacy series aim to promote win-win solutions for both management and workers in the face of pandemic.
Christianus Panjaitan, the ILO’s Programme Officer for Social Protection, explained about three levels of social dialogue according to the definition of the ILO: information exchange, consultation and negotiation. Ideally, good social dialogues should follow these three steps to reach best solutions for all parties involved.
