  1. Myanmar - Promoting Rights at Work in Myanmar

    21 September 2012

    Donor – US Department of State The recently initiated political reform process in Myanmar has opened a window of opportunity for the international community to support the country’s peaceful transition towards democracy after years of military rule and international sanctions. Since 1999, Myanmar has not received technical cooperation from the ILO except for the purpose of combating forced labour. In its 101st session in 2012, the International Labour Conference decided to lift the restrictions and requested that urgent attention be given to technical cooperation priorities such as the effective and full realization of the right to freedom of association, as well as the elimination of forced labour. Today, it is of vital importance to support national constituents in their efforts to make freedom of association a reality – in law and in practice.

  1. Sri Lanka - Promoting Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work in Sri Lanka

    30 September 2009

    Sri Lanka is a democratic country with a market-based economy that has moved into the middle income country category over the past few years. Much of its economic growth has been dependent on the continuing demands of overseas exports. Export Processing Zones (EPZs) play a particularly important role in this context. The ILO Committee of Experts on the Application of Conventions and Recommendations (CEACR) and the Committee on Freedom of Association (CFA) have commented on the country’s application of the principle of freedom of association and the right to collective bargaining. Many of these comments were focused on anti-union practices in EPZs, such as restrictions on the right to organize, limitations on the right to strike, and restrained government action against anti-union discrimination and unjust dismissals.
