"The declaration's emphasis on human rights was to bear more fruit: the ILO promulgated a series of Conventions and Recommendations dealing with labour inspection, freedom of association, the right to organise and collectively bargain, equal pay, against forced labor and discrimination"

The point above needs clarification/elaboration. All of the issues above, including labour inspection, free of association, right to organise and bargain, equal pay, forced labor, etc have to do with labour rights and standards. Yes labour standards are part of human rights but you have not explained why and how that is so. The sentence in its current form, doesn't really make sense. It implies the ILO started to emphasise human rights (as opposed to only labour rights) but all of the terms above fit under the category of labour rights and standards which the ILO began promoting as early as 1919. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.84.88.181 (talk) 03:08, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
