- description:
- Decent work approach in the mica mining sector in India. In the mica mineral mining states of Jharkhand and Bihar, the ARC Project and its partners initiated a supply chain approach to addressing child labour, addressing the working conditions and “push factors” in child labour on the ground as well creating momentum for changes in the regulation and formalization of mica mining and processing. The ILO’s decent work standards including participatory occupational safety and health (OSH) tools were applied with tangible results in community workplace settings in mica mining and processing, with the effect of improving work practices for adults and removing children from the work environment. “Upstream” interventions included production of a decent work Master Plan t for the mica mining sector, to be introduced to policy makers and industry representatives, and multistakeholder advocacy resulting in a new state level policy regulating mica mining.
