The US Department of Labour will fund the International Labour Organisation (ILO) to conduct a US$640,000 project implementing fundamental rights, labour law and administration reform in Maldives.
The Department said the grant would assist the Maldives “in developing a well-functioning system of labor relations, labor law and labor administration”, and would involve the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Human Resources, Youth and Sport, the Labour Relations Authority, Employment Tribunal, and worker and employer organisations.
