SUPPORTING JUST TRANSITION: THE ROLE OF INTERNATIONAL LABOUR STANDARDS
Introduction
The founding of the International Labour Organization (ILO) in 1919 was motivated by three concerns. One was humanitarian or social in nature: working conditions in industry were generally deplorable; workers were often exploited with no consideration for their health, their family lives and their advancement. Another concern was political: there was a growing fear that if working conditions did not improve, this would create social unrest and even revolution, as had just happened in Russia. Finally, the third motivation was economic: to create an international social floor that would ensure that industries and countries that improved working conditions would not find themselves penalized vis-à-vis their competitors.

RESPALDAR UNA TRANSICIÓN JUSTA. LA FUNCIÓN DE LAS NORMAS INTERNACIONALES DEL TRABAJO
Introducción
La Organización Internacional del Trabajo (OIT) se fundó en 1919 por tres motivos inquietantes. El primero de ellos, de naturaleza social o humanitaria: las condiciones del trabajo en la industria eran por lo general deplorables. A menudo, los trabajadores eran explotados sin considerar su salud, su vida familiar ni su progreso. El siguiente motivo era político: crecía el temor de que si las condiciones no mejoraban, crearían malestar social e incluso una revolución, como acababa de ocurrir en Rusia. Por último, el motivo económico: la creación de una base social internacional que garantizara que las industrias y los países que mejorasen las condiciones laborales no serían sancionados frente a sus competidores. | English to Spanish: TEXT 2 BUSINESS PLAN
