28 Nov 2018

On November 28, an international conference on "Enlightenment of trade unions in the East Europe and Central Asia: outputs and ways of development" was held in Baku with the support of the International Labor Organization (ILO), the International Trade Union Confederation and Azerbaijan Trade Unions Confederation.

Agil Dadashov, Deputy Chairman of the AHIK, opened the conference.
He said that the trade unions of Azerbaijan attach great importance to training of professional cadres and regular improvement of their potential skills.
The Azerbaijan Academy of Labor and Social Affairs, which is a modern training center, carries out the task of training highly qualified specialists for the trade union, raising the level of staffing and re-training of existing staff and activists.
Youth organizations have long been active in the Confederation and at the same time in trade unions republic committees.
I would also like to note the importance of the events held with the support of the International Trade Union Confederation in the training of young cadres.
Today, there is a need for elderly people in the trade union to be substituted by young people. Naturally, our main desire is to join more people in the future in the trade union. For this, first of all, young professionals with professional, knowledgeable and modern outlook should be prepared.
Speaking at the conference, chairman of AHIK, MP, Sattar Mohbaliyev, vice-president of ITUC, said that trade unions have been facing more not traditional problems lately. This requires further improvement of organizational and managerial capacity of the trade unionist, deep understanding of the foundations of social psychology, conflict, law, politology, economy and financial policy.
On the other hand, international institutions have important roles in the world community. One of the most important issues is the identification of the steps to be taken to protect the future from impending problems.
