Romania was a founding member of the ILO in 1919.

Between 1993 and 2008, the ILO was present in the country through an own office. The ILO supported labour market institutions and reforms of labour legislation. Some of the key achievements were the revision of the Labour Code, the adoption of new legislation on collective agreements and tripartite social dialogue, the modernisation of labour inspection services, and new active labour market policies.

After Romania’s accession to the EU in 2007, the ILO provided technical comments on the 2010-2011 labour and social dialogue legislation and supported the establishment of the Office for Mediation of Collective Labour Disputes.

Romania funded a technical project on social security implemented by the ILO in Moldova.
