- Tripartite conclusions on artificial intelligence (AI) in the manufacturing sector were adopted by government, employer, and worker representatives, following a five-day meeting in Geneva organized by the International Labour Organization (ILO).
- The document aims to ensure AI fosters decent work, boosts productivity, and supports a just transition in the manufacturing industry, which employs nearly 500 million people globally.
- Key aspects of decent work highlighted in the conclusions involve upholding fundamental principles and rights, employment policies, skills training, occupational safety and health, and social protection.
- Recommendations focus on enhancing skills development, fostering an environment for leveraging AI’s productivity benefits, safeguarding occupational safety, updating regulatory frameworks for AI, and reinforcing social dialogue to manage technological changes.
- The conclusions will be submitted to the ILO Governing Body in November 2026 for endorsement and distribution to guide future policy and industry practices.
