Understanding Framework Agreements: Enhancing Workers' Rights in Multinational Enterprises

A Framework Agreement (FWA) is an international agreement between multinational enterprises and global union federations, aimed at safeguarding workers' rights. For companies like Danone and Chiquita, FWAs ensure training subsidies, advance consultations on changes, and recognition of trade union rights. The agreements respect local laws and incorporate ILO core conventions, thereby promoting a positive relationship between multinational enterprises and the public. FWAs anticipate changes in enterprises and advocate for worker interests in an increasingly globalized economy.
