Summary: The International Labor Organization's Core LaborStandards were adopted as international standards for labor rights.However, a look at four countries in Latin America shows that thisstandards have not been a significant source of change. All fourcountries had labor laws similar predating ratification of those conventions.The standards did little to influence governments and socialmovements and do not appear to enhance enforcement of laborlaw. Even efforts to incorporate the standards into trade agreementshave not led to significant domestic changes. The only areas wherethey may bring change is as a benchmark for new laws and as apotential enforcement tool in some domestic courts.
