Vision Zero Fund Mynamar: Outcomes and Practices Assessment 2017-2020
VZF Myanmar aims to reduce the number of work-related fatalities and accidents and occupational diseases, and to support access to mechanisms to adequately compensate victims and their families in the garment and ginger value chains. An Outcomes and Practices Assessment (OPA) was commissioned in February 2020 to serve as a learning exercise to identify key internal and external factors influencing the adoption of good practices of beneficiaries at the workplace level in Phase I of the project.
Through mixed methods of collecting data from primary and secondary sources, the OPA gained insight into the main research questions, on the top factors (both internal and external) involved in successful adoption of OSH measures and those hampering adoption at the workplace level. Through focus group discussions and key informant interviews with key stakeholder groups, the study uncovered four key themes present in the work of VZF: Productivity, Service Delivery, Institutional Development and Multi-Stakeholder Engagement. Through a series of case studies within the ginger and the garment GSCs, the study was able to identify best practices and lessons learnt on which to build recommendations to support the development of Phase II.
