Serbia has been a member state of the ILO since the year 2000. The country has ratified 77 ILO International Labour Standards (Conventions), including all ten fundamental conventions. Starting in 2008, the ILO has been providing technical assistance on employment creation, labour law reform, promotion of social dialogue and collective bargaining, and improved working conditions including protection from unacceptable forms of work.

The last Decent Work Country Programme (DWCP) with Serbia (2019-2022) focused on more and better jobs (new employment strategy, improved working conditions, enhanced business environment, minimum wage fixing) and improved labour market governance (improved social dialogue, alternative resolution of labour disputes). A new planning framework for continuing ILO’s support to Serbia is currently being drafted.
