Resilient, inclusive and sustainable supply chains

The ILO/Japan project entitles “Resilient, inclusive and sustainable supply chains” aims to advance decent work in more resilient, inclusive and sustainable supply chains as part of regional, national and local efforts to “build forward better”. The project focus on selected supply chains as an entry point for advancing full and productive employment and decent work in Asia and the Pacific, namely, automotive manufacturing in Thailand, electronics manufacturing in Indonesia and aquaculture in the Philippines. As well as to assist ILO constituents in Japan with the effective implementation of the new National Action Plan on Business and Human Rights and new due diligence guidance through a better understanding of critical risks in global supply chains and best practice tools to mitigate. The project contributes to the UN SDG 8 on employment and decent work for all and, in particular, to Target 8.5 on achieve full and productive employment and decent work for all women and men, including for young people and persons with disabilities, and equal pay for work of equal value by identifying and supporting constituents to address decent work opportunities and challenges in supply chains. With the ILO's Programme and budget for 2022-23, the project contributes to Outcome 4: Sustainable enterprises as generators of employment and promoters of innovation and decent work and Outcome 7: Adequate and effective protection at work for all.
