"I fully agree with the importance of health and safety legislation, and of the role of the ILO. We work very closely with the ILO on such issues inside the European Union, and also outside the European Union, because it is very important that such standards are developed and maintained, both in the immediate neighbourhood of the EU and more widely. It is of huge importance that tomorrow, the Secretary-General of the ILO will come to this Chamber and discuss related issues with us. On the question of the social rights, we have been working together with the ILO and have observed with great concern that in many cases, there has been a step back, and a questioning of these. Where we have already engaged with some authorities is when there is a challenge to the rights of mobile workers when, in a country which is different from the country of origin of a certain worker, his or her rights are questioned. In such cases, sometimes very publicly, we engage with the national authorities. The Commission will do its utmost to protect the existing rights of mobile workers."@en1
