Abstract

At the International Labour Conference in 2011, a new strategy was formulated to establish sustainable social security systems. This strategy resulted in the recognition of the Social Protection Floors Recommendation by the ILC, which convened in 2012. The so-called Recommendation, number 202, is intended for the creation of national social protection floors. Social protection floors cover legal implementations including the obtention of the right to basic health and basic income assurance. There are four fundamental policies that will be dealt with while creating the social protection floors at the national level. The first of these policies is to develop social security programs to support employment policies. Following this, it is necessary that a comprehensive national social security system be set up. The third fundamental policy is to strengthen the country’s institutional capacity within the framework of principles of governance and liability. Finally, creating the financial sources of social protection floors should be dealt with within the national fiscal space. In order to be able to succeed in the extension of social protection floors at national and international levels that will be created within the framework of the Recommendation numbered 202, the support of national governments, NGOs and global efforts is needed within the framework of social dialogue.
