action_plan:

JCFA plans to use the training materials on workers' rights and OSH for new workers hired in the next planting season. The unified contracts have been introduced to two new farms, however their use is still voluntary as the recently passed Agriculture bylaws, which bring the sector under labour law for the first time, are being gradually implemented and might be reviewed and amended. OSH measures continue to be implemented including the use of PPE and first aid kits. The solar panels, water treatment, wash facilities, and irrigation channels continue to be used. The website and database are being used to identify new workers, however they need to be more widely advertised so that more people use it. They are planning to allocate internal funds to publicise the website and towards its maintenance. JCFA is also in discussion with other donors, including USAID, to expand the ILO training to new farms, with a focus on persons with disabilities. The plan is to establish a new nursery that is designed at the outset to accommodate persons with disabilities and has machinery that is specially adapted for use by PWDs.
