title:
Recommendation 2: Add specific focus to the engagement, capacity, and priorities of trade unions and employer organisations as part of Phase III and future similar programmes. One challenge related to support for migrant / non-native workers is that trade unions and employer organisations do not include their representation in their agenda. This is a challenge in Türkiye as well. At the same time, trade unions could provide support for formalisation and advice on workers’ rights. The capacity of trade unions and employer organisations should focus on decent work principles in general, which would benefit both SuTP and TC equally. Actions to be taken can include: - Engage with ILO MIGRANT to identify best practices on the promotion of migrant/non-native workers’ rights by trade unions and employer organisations. This could involve organising workshops where successful case studies are presented, and trade union representatives can learn from these examples. - Engage with ILO ACTRAV and ACTEMP to learn about the best practices to engage with employer and trade union organisations to support social dialogue. Promote knowledge exchange on overcoming specific challenges or difficulties. - Enhance the capacity of trade unions and employer organisations to understand the components of decent work and advocate for decent work in social dialogue. This can be achieved by developing and delivering targeted training programmes and setting up capacity-building sessions tailored to leaders and members. - Continue to raise awareness among SuTP on their opportunities to join trade unions. This can include organising informational sessions in collaboration with local NGOs to explain the benefits and processes of joining trade unions and a presence at local centres for Syrian refugees.
