Abstract: From December 8 to 11, 1948, the 107th session of the Governing Body of the International Labor Organization was held in Geneva. The Governing Body undertook to administer programs in the field of job-training and workers migration, activities urged on ILO by the Organization for European Economic Cooperation and by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe. These were new activities for ILO, which had hitherto confined itself to studies and consultations but had not undertaken administrative responsibility. The Governing Body decided to review four of the nine labor conventions adopted by the 28th International Labor (Maritime) Conference in 1946. At the 32nd session of the Conference at Geneva in June conventions covering social security for seafarers, paid vacations, accommodations for crews, and wages and hours were to be discussed with a view to possible revision. It was decided to establish a field office on technical training in Asia, to appoint a tripartite committee or governing body of technical training experts to meet periodically on manpower problems, and to hold a conference of experts on technical training in Asia in the near future.
