comments:

While the ILO is not planning specific activities to support the implementation of the Equality Policy, the latter yet to be officially endorsed by the Government of KSA, activities to support the implementation of the Child labour policy and the social dialogue-related reports are planned under the second phase of the DC programme which will start in July 2022.

action_plan:

The ILO in agreement with the Ministry has already included in the second phase of the Development Cooperation Programme a number of technical and capacity building activities aimed explicitly at supporting the implementation of the child labour policy. Other activities on social dialogue are also planned to support implementation of the recommendations of the social dialogue assessment report and those of the report on the "Creation of an administrative unit for social dialogue inside the MHRSD".

title:

ILO and its partners should build on the accomplishments of the Project and support implementation of the policies and various recommendation emanating from this phase’s studies and reports. This evaluation recommends that the ILO, its partners, and its funders build on the preceding achievements of the project with special attention to social dialogue and inclusive employment. The project has successfully contributed to pave the road towards successful transition towards better employment outcomes and processes. This is also supported and guided by the well-structured equality policy, inclusive labour market study, social dialogue assessment, legal framework review, in addition to the child labour policy & study. Special attention should be provided to implementing the key recommendations that resulted from these studies especially in view of the higher level of the political will found from the MHRSD and other partners. The ILO should consider continued provision of support both in terms of capacity building and technical support.
