The Kerala Institute of Labour and Employment (KILE) signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the International Labour Organisation (ILO) aimed at pedagogy in the field of labour relations. Labour Minister V. Sivankutty and Satoshi Sasaki, Officer in Charge/Deputy Director of the ILO, signed the MoU at a function held here on Wednesday.
Under the programme, a diploma course in Social Dialogue and Industrial Relations will be launched soon. The course emphasises the importance of effective communication, collaboration, and understanding in the workplace. Mr. Sivankutty said that the course was a testament to the government’s commitment to fostering harmonious relationships between employers and workers. He said it was the first time in the country that the ILO has entered into an MoU with a labour institute under a State government.
