State Committee For Labour And Social Problems
Goskomtrud () was the State Committee for Labour and Social Issues in the Soviet Union. It dealt with labour relations and wage issues. A 1991 western (American) review of the institution claimed over-emphasis on wage policy: The problem in Goskomtrud's case is overcoming not so much its longstanding defense of traditional social policies, as its narrow preoccupation with wage policy to the virtual exclusion of everything else.
