Globalisation has not produced enough jobs, says ILO head

Globalisation has failed to create jobs, effectively fuelling mass economic migration worldwide, the director-general of the International Labour Organisation (ILO), Juan Somavia, said on Monday. Speaking to the ILO's annual assembly, Somavia said more than one billion people were unemployed, prompting 120 million migrant workers to leave their families and home countries in the hope of finding a job elsewhere.
