The proposed recommendation was part of the strategy and intervention model of the SSCBFB project and is part of the strategy and intervention model of the Supply Chains for a Sustainable Future or Work that the project team is currently implementing.

The new Supply Chains for a Sustainable Future or Work project builds on the SSCBFB project and focuses on strengthening the sectoral social dialogue mechanisms established under that project as well as the capacities of ILO constituents to organize and bargain collectively.

title:

5. ILO is recommended in the follow up on the current SSCBFB project to strengthen ILO cluster approaches to look at structural features of social dialogue and collective bargaining mechanisms and institutions that exist at the country, sector and company level and identify key weaknesses and imbalances within these structures. ILO-SECTOR should identify actions to strengthen weaker linkages in national and sectoral structures for social dialogue and CBAs and actions to revitalise and strengthen capacities of workers organisations in specific supply chains, to be addressed in an ILO cluster approach. Examples of such actions in the countries selected for the next follow-up project are: a. Colombia: challenges of family labour and informal (temporal) workers in the coffee sector are considerable and persistent and require a strong focus organising informal, migrant and temporal workers; b. Malaysia: (migrant) workers in the rubber glove sector are not yet organised and awareness among employers of the importance of formal workers representation is low. This requires a specific approach to empower Trade Unions in this sector. At the same time the links between MARGMA, as the rubber glove association and MEF, as the national employers’ federation can be strengthened to strengthen the institutional structure of social dialogue and CBA in the rubber sector and at national level.
