摘要：In March of 2001, after considerable de-
bate, the Guatemalan Congress passed a
set of major labor reforms (de la Torre,
2001). The motivating force behind this
set of labor reforms was to move towards
compliance with International Labour
Organization (ILO) guidelines. The ILO,
a specialized agency of the United Na-
tions, is a tripartite commission of gov-
ernment, labor, and business interests that
works to define and improve so-called
“core” labor standards throughout the
world. According to the ILO (2006),
these standards are so basic and universal
that “they apply to all people in all
States—regardless of the level of eco-
nomic development.”
