Why does scholarship on transnational labor regulation (TLR) consistently fail to search for improvements in working conditions, and instead devotes itself to relentless efforts for identifying administrative processes, semantics, and amalgamations of stakeholders? This article critiques TLR from a pro‐worker perspective, through the philosophical work of Georg Lukács, and the concepts of reification and commodification. A set of theoretically grounded criteria is developed and these are applied against selected contemporary cases of TLR. In the totality that is capitalism, reification of social relations of production conceals completely the experiences of workers. In TLR, managerialist and process‐oriented scholarship is dominant, verifiable outcomes and positive improvements in conditions of employment are not sought, and worse, meaningless procedures are celebrated as positive achievements.

为什么有关跨国劳工法规（TLR）的奖学金始终未能寻求改善工作条件的方法，而是全力以赴地致力于确定行政程序，语义和利益相关者的融合？本文通过乔治·卢卡奇（GeorgLukács）的哲学著作以及具体化和商品化的概念，从工人的角度对TLR提出了批评。制定了一套理论基础的标准，并将这些标准应用于某些TLR的当代案例。在总体上，即资本主义中，生产社会关系的完善完全掩盖了工人的经验。在TLR中，管理主义和面向过程的奖学金占主导地位，没有可验证的结果，也没有寻求就业条件的积极改善，更糟的是，
