- description:
- In both ILES OSH training and SCORE programmes, involving workers in factory improvements was an important aspect of the intervention. For example, according to an ILO specialist, worker involvement is OSH promotion is important, noting the absence of worker involvement is often a gap in external audit-led approaches, “This is why I say many companies have good drinking water facilities and fire facilities…but they are not always convenient to workers. Issues that are not covered by the audit tend to be missed.” Under ILES, the ILO specialist is currently working on an OSH handbook for Workers’ Organizations and is scheduled to deliver related training starting next year (in 2021).
ILES, an ILO-led partnership with WWF, aims to help ILO tripartite constituents and other stakeholders to strengthen compliance with national and international labour and environmental laws and standards to sustainably increase the country’s competitiveness while promoting inclusive development. ILES proposes to promote compliance with international labour and environmental standards through two sub- objectives:
3. To assist public sector institutions to improve the enforcement of existing legislation and compliance with international labour and environmental standards in Pakistan as well as define new laws where necessary; and
4. To assist textile and leather sector enterprises to institutionalize the implementation of, and compliance with international labour and environmental standards.
