國際勞工組織（International Labor Organization，又稱ILO）對於勞動權益或勞動條件所為之公約，為普世認同之勞動基準。為因應全球化經濟所生變化，致勞動權益保障未能周延，國際勞工組織乃將基本人權中之自由權、平等權，與勞動者基本權之團結權、協商權有關之公約訂為「核心勞動基準」，以揭示該等權利之重要。我國現雖非為國際勞工組織之會員國，但為人類社會之一份子，亦應遵守國際之勞動基準，保障勞動者之基本權益。本文以國際勞工組織之核心勞動基準為基本標準，對應相關之勞動立法及行政上之實務見解，以檢視我國在勞動基本權之保障。以第29號強制勞動禁止公約，對應勞動基準法第五條及第四章工作時間、休息與休假相關立法與行政函釋，檢視我國之勞動自由。以第100號同工同酬公約及第111號歧視（就業與職業訓練）公約，對應就業服務法及性別工作平等法（原「男女工作平等法」）相關立法與行政函釋，檢視我國之勞動平等。以第87號結社自由及保護組織權公約與第98號團結權及團體交涉權公約，對應工會法相關立法與行政函釋，檢視我國之勞動團結。也以第98號團結權及團體交涉權公約，對應團體協約法相關立法與行政函釋，檢視我國之勞動協商。
