Abstract
Social security is the main instrument available to the State to deal with the risk of loss of wage incomes that all citizens face in foreseeable but unavoidable situations such as old age, illness or accidents. The Toledo Pact was created to study the structural problems that threaten our Social Security and, based on the results of that study, to forge a sufficient degree of consensus to undertake the reforms aimed at solving or mitigating those problems. In this article, the foundations of the Toledo Pact are analyzed, beginning with the connection between social justice and universal peace, which was accommodated in the Preamble to the Constitution of the International Labor Organization and, of course, in the Spanish Constitution of 1978. It also analyses the Pacts of Moncloa as the main precedent of the Pact of Toledo and the article closes with an exposition of the current situation of the Pact of Toledo structured in the analysis of its concept, content and parliamentary review.
