Technical support on ILS in Zimbabwe

This project aims at strengthening capacity to ratify and apply international labour standards and to fulfil related reporting obligations in Zimbabwe. The work will progressively strengthen labour market governance and social dialogue through a functioning Tripartite Negotiating Forum (TNF) and the application of international labour standards in law and practice. A synthesis of comments from the ILO supervisory bodies on Zimbabwe’s implementation of international labour standards will be produced, validated and disseminated. Training of trainers on international labour standards for police will be conducted and the Code of Good Practice and handbook for law enforcement agencies finalised. In addition, customized capacity-building will be provided to support the effective engagement of social partners in national and sectoral dialogues on labour market and labour law issues. Principles for labour law reform will be established by the Tripartite Law Advisory Council. Operational guidelines for negotiators will be developed.
