Labour Clauses (Public Contracts) Convention, 1949 is an International Labour Organization (ILO) Convention adopted in Geneva on 29 June 1949. Its preamble states:

Having decided upon the adoption of certain proposals concerning labour clauses in public contracts ....

The convention requires subscribing states to ensure that public procurement contracts contain clauses ensuring that workers performing the contract would be entitled to "wages ..., hours of work and other conditions" which would be "not less favourable than those established for work of the same character in the trade or industry concerned in the district where the work is carried on".ILO, [http://www.ilo.org/dyn/normlex/en/f?p=NORMLEXPUB:12100:0::NO:12100:P12100_ILO_CODE:C094 Labour Clauses (Public Contracts) Convention, 1949], Convention C94
