Manufacturing and industrial companies—auto and equipment makers, aerospace manufacturers, building materials and chemicals producers, and others—play an important role in addressing sustainability challenges. Their global supply chains use vast amounts of labor and raw materials, and their operations and products underpin economies around the world—creating vital jobs and infrastructure, as well as bene¹ts and challenges for communities and the environment.
In 2015, I expect the sustainability challenges and opportunities in this sector to expand, as companies, consumers, regulators, and activists demand greater focus on environmental and social issues like climate change and con¼ict minerals, and as shifting markets and business practices raise new issues, such as the integration of “smart” networked information technology into manufactured products.

Humans and robots working beside each other and with each other? What sounds like the future is now the present, thanks to a central-European partnership involving a new generation of collaborative robots freed from the safety restrictions required in the past.
Škoda Auto (a part of the Volkwagen Group since 1991), MATADOR Group and KUKA have come together in the town of Vrchlabí near the foot of the Giant Mountains for a manufacturing initiative without borders or fences. The industrial cultures of the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Germany link the three companies, while human-robot teamwork on the factory floor has entered a new dimension after the removal of the safety fencing that once separated these members of the modern workforce.
And all this is happening in an automobile factory that produces direct-shift-gearbox automatic transmissions. There, an industrial robot does what industrial robots do best: grow productivity, reduce costs and improve output quality. In this particular case, the KUKA LBR iiwa inserts the gear actuator piston into the transmission – precisely and gently doing a very repetitive task.

The training strategy for strong, sustainable and balanced growth addresses strategic issues as well as practical arrangements. It provides a platform for further exchange of ideas and experiences among a wide range of institutions, enterprises, experts from all countries. It will strengthen the cooperation among international agencies, and inform the ILO’s work.
