About Global Deal

Global Deal is a multi-stakeholder partnership with the objective of jointly addressing chal-lenges in the global labour market so as to enable all people to benefit from globalisation. The fundamental idea at the heart of the Global Deal is to highlight the potential of sound industrial relations and enhanced social dialogue as a means to foster decent work, quality jobs and increased productivity and, by extension, greater equality and inclusive growth.
