Internal Working Regulations in Costa Rica 1. General description The present project proposal is submitted to Human Resources and Skills Development Canada with a view to supporting the strategic measures set forth in the operationalization and promotion of the ILO Decent Work Agenda in Costa Rica. Building on the ILO’s mandate and tripartite membership, a key strategy of the project is to strengthen employers’ and workers’ organizations for the development of a meaningful and continued process of social dialogue in this case at the enterprise level. The project will aim to develop and test standardized tools and methodologies for ensuring that the process leading to the approval of IWRs is efficient and to promote their use among workplaces across the country. The project will make a concrete contribution to ITLP by assisting the Government of Canada meet its commitment to address the labour dimensions of international trade and economic integration. By strengthening the MTSS capacity to respond more efficiently to employers interested in having IWRs that foster better labour relations among employers and workers in Costa Rica. Ultimately, the project will promote good governance and the rule of law, and respect for labour rights and international labour standards. As indicated above, the adoption of IWRs, coupled with adequate labour inspection to ensure their enforcement in the workplace, will provide clear and specific rules that are known and respected by each party (employers and workers). In that sense, IWRs foster better labour relations which in turn provide an opportunity to improve compliance with labour rights and, more generally, ensure good governance and the protection of labour rights. In order to achieve the above, the MTSS needs to have the capacity to analyse and approve IWRs in a timely fashion and, secondly, to generate greater interest from the employers to have IWRs in place. This project is clearly aligned with the national strategy and interests of the Ministry of Labour (official letter enclosed). The project will contribute to the National Development Plan 2011 – 2014, particularly to Objective 3, which focuses on the Promotion of Decent Work through tutelage of labour rights.

Capacity building for workers’ organizations; mainstreaming tripartism in the SIDA Programme Executive summary The project strategy is capacity building through research, knowledge building, and labour education to enable trade unions to better contribute to the thematic areas under the SIDA Partnership: freedom of association, job-inclusive growth, and OSH. The capacity building programme will be developed by ACTRAV by drawing the required expertise from the labour movement as well as by working together with ILO technical departments. In particular, ACTRAV’s strategy to mainstream tripartism in the Sida Programme will be based on: • Strengthening trade unions’ capacities and expertise in understanding and tackling the issues of concerns, building the capacities to develop research work on the identified issues with a workers’ perspective for mapping out a trade union strategy. • Support the trade unions to develop or enhance a national policy in order to address the problems related to the identified themes. ACTRAV will support the organization and implementation of high level policy seminars to raise the awareness of the trade union leaders and to discuss national trade union policies. • Enhance research and training capacities of international and national trade union centres through the development of a training of trainers’ programmes. ACTRAV will develop or adapt tailor-made labour education packages on selected issues such as OSH/E. • Provide labour organizations with the necessary tools to enable them to participate in the Sida Programme. ACTRAV may develop, where necessary, specific campaigns or products such as the design or adaptation of existing training packages or information material. • Exchange of trade unions’ best practices and strategies supporting the creation of networks within and between trade unions. ACTRAV will promote joint strategies between national trade union centres and the international trade unions to address the identified problems. • Promote the existing social dialogue mechanisms that deal with the issue of concerns, ensuring a full involvement of the trade unions’ organizations.
Enhancing the Employability of Workers and the Competitiveness of Business for the Socio-Economic Development of Viet Nam The revision of the 2006 Law on Vocational Training forms part of the Vietnamese Government’s efforts to further socio-economic development by promoting human resources and skills development. ILO has been requested to assist the Government in revising and updating the Law for improved governance and so that it becomes more responsive to current developments in the labour market for better matching demand and supply. The project has a three -pronged approach: first, it will provide direct technical assistance in revising and drafting the new law; second, it will build the capacity of relevant stakeholders in drafting laws, preparing decrees, guidelines and managing the processes leading to its implementation while at the same time securing and building capacity for coordination and tripartite dialogue. The latter will be the third approach. As the third-pronged approach, and to ensure a regular consultative process, the establishment of a more permanent tripartite consultative mechanism is envisaged. Capacity for this can be delivered if the partners agree on such an approach. Such a consultative mechanism will also be useful in other contexts as well as securing the longer terms sustainability of the project and its objectives. The project will be implemented in a tripartite manner in a coordinated effort by the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs (MoLISA), the Vietnam General Confederation of Labour (VGCL) and the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI). The project is funded by the One UN in combination with support from ILOs regular budget and in-kind contributions from partners. The budget is USD 129,600 and the project duration is 16 months, aiming for completion by December 2014 with the approval of the Law by the National Assembly.

Global Programme for General Management Support to the EC-UN Joint Migration and Development Initiative The EC-UN Joint Migration and Development Initiative is predicated on the emerging acceptance that there exists a strong nexus between migration and development. The UN High Level Dialogue on Migration and Development, and the subsequent Global Forum of Migration and Development, underscored the contribution of international migrants in meeting labour shortages in destination countries as well as their social and cultural contributions. It also acknowledged that remittances represent the most tangible benefit of international migration for countries of origin and that skill transfers from circular migration has the potential to contribute positively to national economies. Within this context, it is important to stress that international migration, development and human rights are inextricably linked and that respect for the fundamental rights and freedoms of migrants are essential for reaping the full benefits of migration. The overall objective of the Joint Initiative is to support small scale actors to contribute more fully to linking migration and development in line with international policy frameworks.

Combating human trafficking in Zambia: Protecting the rights of migrant workers Human trafficking has only recently emerged as an issue in Zambia, yet it appears to be a growing problem. While the knowledge base on the nature and scale of the problem remains quite limited, some victims of trafficking are from neighbouring States transiting through Zambia, while others are Zambian nationals, both adults and children, trafficked internally or to neighbouring or more distant countries in Europe and North America The action under this proposal aims to complement and contribute to the UN Joint Programme against human trafficking (UNJPT), addressing certain specific areas under the programme that have not yet secured donor funding, and which the ILO is in a strong position to implement working together with its tripartite constituents – Ministry of Labour, employers’ and workers’ organizations. The project will support the ongoing EC-funded intervention ((ZAM/09/01/CEF) in the analysis of data on forced labour and in awareness-raising among Employment Agencies so as to ensure that they live up to their responsibilities in upholding and respecting the basic employment rights of their clientele.

Fata-Gesundheitsprogramm Basic Health Programme in FATA Durch das Programm soll ein Beitrag zur Verbesserung der prekären Gesundheitssituation der Bevölkerung in der Armuts- und Krisenregion FATA geleistet werden.
