>> Question 4 : Which are the up-to-date ILO conventions on social security?
Some of the social security standards adopted were intended to address major concerns at the time of their adoption, but do not necessarily still correspond to the current needs of the international community. With a view to strengthening the relevance, coherence and impact of its standards system, the ILO therefore embarked upon an important process of the detailed examination on a case-by-case basis of all of its Conventions and Recommendations.
The up-to-date ILO conventions on social security are:
The standard setting conventions
C. 102 on Social Security Minimum Standards
C. 121 on Employment Injury Benefits
C. 128 on Old-Age, Invalidity and Survivors’ Benefits
C. 130 on Medical Care Benefits
C. 168 on Unemployment Benefits
C. 183 on Maternity Benefits
Up-to-date social security conventions of coordination (standards for migrant workers)
