The Austrian Chamber of Labour (AK) welcomes the attempt of the EU to take more decisive action against Child Labour violations. Above all, it is a concern of the AK to oppose the exclusively incentive-oriented approach with regard to trade policies. It is therefore required to change the emphasis of the Council Conclusions from “trade incentives” to “trade measures”. The AK supports the examination of a list that records goods and services, which are produced or rendered using the worst forms of Child Labour (ILO Convention 182). In any case, from our point of view an important ban is also justified as a last consequence in case of violations.
