". This report deserves my vote, because it is major step forwards in raising awareness of the complex interconnection between globalisation and the promotion of core labour standards. I would emphasise, in particular, the need to draw up a strategy that sees globalisation as a contribution to social development and respect for fundamental rights. In fact, globalisation entails both challenges and opportunities and must lead to the improvement of living and working conditions and higher levels of development aid for the least-favoured communities. Establishing a single European code of conduct to govern the international operations of European industry is a crucial instrument for ensuring that core labour standards are implemented. For this reason, the European Union must work in cooperation with the governments of developing countries and include respect for core labour standards in its cooperation agreements with third countries. It is worth emphasising once again the importance of the issue of gender equality. Greater attention needs to be paid to women’s organisations when addressing the issue of involving social partners in defining policies on sustainable development and social cohesion."@en1
