El 14 de enero 2021 se celebra un seminario telemático sobre el nuevo Acuerdo comercial entre Estados Unidos, México y Canadá (USMCA) que sustituye al viejo NAFTA y su anexo sobre relaciones laborales, que tan poco recorrido tuvo en su tiempo de vigencia. Los mecanismos de queja se han incrementado en el actual, así como las menciones al tema laboral, por lo que resulta importante para cualquier laboralista interesado en las cuestiones internacionales. Muestra de su impacto en todo el mundo es el panel de comentaristas que intervienen en el desarrollo del evento, con intervenciones de Lance Compa, Janice Bellacce, Giuseppe Casale o Fausta Guarriello, y con la clausura por el profesor Tiziano Treu, antiguo presidente de la SIDTSS y actual presidente del Consiglio Nazionale di Economia e Lavoro italiano.
El webinar se celebrará en lengua inglesa, y viene organizado por la LLC, Labour Law Community que preside la profesora Marzia Barbera.

I am glad to share with you the information about the online seminar «International Trade and Labour Law: the USMCA», organised by the Labour Law Community – LLC together with the International Society for Labour and Social Security Law – ISLSSL, which will be held on Zoom on Thursday 14 January 2021 h 6.00 pm CET. You will find all information on the panel in the attached poster. To participate, you will just need to click on this link at the starting time of the webinar: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87959292065 The USMCA, an agreement between the United States, Mexico and Canada that has replaced the NAFTA and the side agreement on labour (NAALC), represents an important advance on the path of the virtuous link between regulation of international trade and promotion of social rights. The new agreement, in fact, contains chapter no. 23 entirely dedicated to work: here the Parties go beyond the generic list of «principles» contained in the previous NAALC and expressly refer to the principles and conventions of the ILO, thus aiming for regulatory harmonisation between States through international labour law.
The opportunity to deepen the knowledge of this important Treaty with Janice Bellace and Lance Compa, distinguished scholars of labour law, appointed by the US government as members of the panel that has the task of sanctioning the non-compliant parties, is also a chance to reflect on the European economic and social model, as well as on the resumption of international trade relations in the Biden era, with the aim of relaunching the instrument of the social clause at a macro-regional but also at global multilateral level. Best regards,
