Background

OPIC is a U.S. Government agency

which provides, on a commercial basis,

political risk insurance and financing in

friendly developing countries and

emerging democracies for

environmentally sound projects which

confer positive developmental benefits

upon the project country while creating

employment in the U.S. OPIC is

required by section 231A(b) of the

Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as

amended (‘‘the Act’’) to hold at least one

public hearing each year.

Among other issues, OPIC’s annual

public hearing has, in previous years,

provided a forum for testimony

concerning section 231A(a) of the Act.

This section provides that OPIC may

operate its programs only in those

countries that are determined to be

‘‘taking steps to adopt and implement

laws that extend internationally

recognized workers rights to workers in

that country (including any designated

zone in that country).’’

Based on consultations with Congress,

OPIC complies with annual

determinations made by the Executive

Branch with respect to worker rights for

countries that are eligible for the

Generalized System of Preferences

(GSP). Any country for which GSP

eligibility is revoked on account of its

failure to take steps to adopt and

implement internationally recognized

worker rights is subject concurrently to

the suspension of OPIC programs until

such time as a favorable worker rights

determination can be made.

For non-GSP countries in which OPIC

operates its programs, OPIC reviews any

country which is the subject of a formal

challenge at its annual public hearing.

To qualify as a formal challenge,

testimony must pertain directly to the

worker rights requirements of the law as

defined in OPIC’s 1985 reauthorizing

legislation (Public Law 99–204) with

reference to the Trade Act of 1974, as

amended, and be supported by factual

information.
