Governance, Organization, and Membership
Unlike other United Nations specialized agencies, the International Labour Organization has a tripartite governing structure — representing governments, employers and workers (usually with a ratio of 2:1:1). The rationale behind the tripartite structure is creation of free and open debate among governments and social partners.
The ILO secretariat (staff) is referred to as the International Labour Office.
