contents Three labour governance mechanisms for addressing decent work deficits in global value chains Mark Sebastian Anner The GVC literature has identified six governance mechanisms for addressing decent work deficits (Gereffi and Lee 2016). This article argues that the most effective governance mechanisms are those that mitigate GVC power asymmetries. Three such mechanisms are: 1. public governance, because it brings in the power of the state; 2. encompassing Collective Barganing Agreements (CBAs); and 3.multi-actor Global Binding Agreements (GBAs). The labour governance mechanism that most effectively address decent work deficits will differ depending on variations in gaps in national labour relations regimes, and it will be shaped by patterns and strategies of worker resistance. publication.journalArticle
