• Description:
• Tenders are invited for International Consultancy to Support the Uae Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratization (Mohre) in Building the Capacity of Their Labour Inspector. Closing Date: 5 May 2024 Type: Consultancy Themes: Coordination/Safety and Security Introduction Effective implementation of, and promoting compliance with, labour legislation, depends on the existence of an effective labour inspection system that operates in line with the relevant international labour standards (ILS). Labour inspectors monitor employment conditions and occupational safety and health (OSH) standards and examine how national labour standards are applied in the workplace and advise employers and workers on how to improve the application of national law in such areas as working time, wages, occupational safety and health, and child labour. In addition, labour inspectors bring to the notice of national authorities gaps and defects in national law. They play an important role in ensuring that labour law is applied equally to all employers and workers. Because the importance of labour inspection is recognized by the international community, the ILO has made the promotion of the ratification and implementation of the labour inspection Conventions, particularly the Labour Inspection Convention, No. 81, a priority, but challenges remain concerning implementation of those conventions, especially when it comes to the technical capacity of labour inspectors, in terms of knowledge and skills, for performing their duties in an effective manner. Therefore, the ILO is assisting the MoHRE in strengthening its inhouse training capacity by building the capacity of a number of its officials and qualifying them as labour inspection and OSH trainers. They will receive high quality training on modern labour inspection procedures and practices, and related issues, that enables them to design and implement comprehensive training programmes on a wide range of topic, including labour inspection policy and planning, designing strategies for promoting compliance with the national legislation, inspection of working conditions and employment relationship, dealing with vulnerable groups of workers, non-discrimination, OSH and others.
