The Self-Assessment tool for Employers is designed to help employers ensure that their business is fully aligned with core international labour standards, and that they can protect the reputation of their businesses and promote themselves as an ethical employer. In addition to attracting new clients and maintaining good relations with existing ones, ensuring respect for international labour standards can result in more satisfied workers, lower turnover of staff, increased productivity and a better-trained workforce. It can therefore be directly beneficial to employers, workers and the economy as a whole. The tool is for self-evaluation, highlighting areas for improvement in business practices for benefits of the employers and the workers at the same time.
