The International Institute for Labour Studies of the International Labour Office (ILO) is to launch a new study, entitled ‘World of Work Report 2008 - Income Inequality in the Age of Financial Globalisation’ on Thursday (October 16).
The study analyses the latest trends in income inequality, and its underlying factors, including financial globalisation, decent work deficits and the weakening role of redistribution policies.
Printed copies of the report (which is under embargo until Thursday October 16, 13.00 GMT) will be available on request, along with a press release and executive summary. (The report will be posted on the ILO website in PDF format or can be emailed as of October 16.)
