Dear Sir or Madam,
In accordance with the decision taken by the Governing Body at its 344th Session (March 2022),
it is my pleasure to invite your Government to nominate a representative to attend the Technical
meeting on a green, sustainable and inclusive economic recovery for the civil aviation sector. The
meeting will be held at the headquarters of the International Labour Organization (ILO) in
Geneva, from Monday, 24 April to Friday, 28 April 2023.
Agenda
The purpose of the meeting is to discuss opportunities and challenges relating to best
practices in occupational safety and health and the promotion of decent work and productive
employment to shape the recovery of the aviation industry beyond the COVID-19 pandemic,
with the aim of adopting conclusions, including recommendations for future action.
Background documents
The Office is preparing a report for discussion in English, French and Spanish, which will serve
as a basis for the meeting’s deliberations. The report will be shared electronically ahead of the
meeting with all representatives, advisers and observers, and will be posted on
www.ilo.org/sector, where other meeting documents will also be made available.
Composition
The meeting will bring together governments of ILO Member States, eight Employer
representatives and eight Worker representatives nominated by the Employers’ and Workers’
groups of the Governing Body, as well as advisers and observers.
In accordance with the Standing Orders for technical meetings, 1 each government interested in
attending the meeting may appoint one representative, who may be accompanied by one
adviser. Alternatively, governments may participate as observers.
Selected official international organizations, as well as non-governmental international
organizations, will also be invited to participate in the meeting as observers.

representative and adviser by e-mail to

Should your Government wish to participate in the meeting as an observer, please specify so
in the aforementioned letter, with the name, title and e-mail address of the person
nominated.
When making these nominations, your Government is invited to bear in mind the resolutions
adopted by the International Labour Conference, calling upon members to include a greater

and targets of the United Nations concerning the promotion of gender balance.
Interpretation
Simultaneous interpretation will be provided in English, French and Spanish. Should your
Government wish to request interpretation in other ILO working languages, 2 please indicate
this by Monday, 27 February 2023.
Travel arrangements
In keeping with the Standing Orders for technical meetings, travel and subsistence expenses of
government participants will be payable by the governments concerned. Please note that the
Office neither supplies insurance coverage nor accepts any liability for a participant’s claim in
connection with an accident or a medical disorder arising before, during or after the meeting.
Participants are therefore responsible for obtaining adequate insurance coverage before
travelling for the entire duration of the meeting, including time spent travelling to and from the
event. Participants are kindly advised to only travel when in good health.
Visas and accommodation
I would also like to draw your attention to the fact that if participants require entry visas for
Switzerland, which is part of the Schengen area, they will need to obtain them in their own
countries well in advance of their departure.
Lastly, please note that the Office is not equipped to make reservations for hotel
accommodation. A list of hotels offering preferential rates for participants in ILO meetings may
be furnished upon request.
We look forward to receiving a positive reply from your Government.
Yours sincerely,
For the Director-General:
Alette van Leur
