NATLEX

NATLEX is a database of national labor, social security, and related human rights legislation that is maintained by the International Labour Organization (ILO).

This Website provides access to over 55,000 records covering more than 170 countries and territories worldwide. Records in NATLEX provide abstracts of legislation and relevant citation information, and they are indexed by keywords and by subject classifications. Each record in NATLEX appears in only one of the three ILO official languages, English, French, or Spanish.

The user can browse the NATLEX database by country or by subject. Alternatively, an advanced search option is available that allows users to search the NATLEX database using a combination of dates, titles, countries and/or subjects. The "New in NATLEX" option offers users the option of monitoring changes in legislation by country or by subject. The technical development of NATLEX, which is maintained by the ILO's International Labour Standards Department, was undertaken with funding provided by the U.S. Department of Labor.
