Better Work 2022-2027

Better Work's 2022-2027 strategy focuses on achieving long-term sustainability of Better Work’s impacts. Better Work will act as a trusted partner, use its unique convening power with purpose, and leverage its knowledge and data capability within the ILO and IFC to advance long-lasting improvements in the lives of workers and their families, address the environmental impacts of the industry and promote sustainable enterprises. It will evolve its services to ensure they continue to be delivered after completion of the programme whereas Better Work’s role will be shifting towards a convenor, capacity builder and quality controller. OUTCOME 1: By 2027, employers and workers and their representatives in the Better Work programme uphold and are protected by national labour laws and fundamental principles and rights at work; and enterprises in the sector that have emerged from the COVID-19 crisis are more sustainable, resilient and inclusive. OUTCOME 2: By 2027, Better Work’s impact on workers, businesses and compliance is sustained by national institutions that leverage the programme’s approaches, data and evidence. OUTCOME 3: By 2027, enterprises that participate in Better Work have adopted policies and practices on responsible business conduct that support the realization of decent work. OUTCOME 4: By 2027, Better Work’s learnings and methods have created positive social and environmental impacts beyond the programme as they are adopted in other countries and sectors.
