The report calls on the international community to assist in providing the parameters of a just and fair solution for all, particularly the employers and workers in the occupied Arab territories. It is concerned that the peace process has been at a standstill for a year. Violence has escalated since October 2015 in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
Unemployment remains high, and in Gaza it is the highest in the world. The situation of Palestinian workers is increasingly precarious.
The annual report of the ILO on the situation of workers of the occupied Arab territories will be submitted to the ILO’s International Labour Conference , which opens in Geneva on 30 May 2016.
