The Trade and Investment for Decent Work Program ensures that economic growth, trade policies, and investment decisions translate into quality jobs for workers. NOTU engages policymakers and stakeholders to advocate for labor-inclusive trade agreements and responsible investment practices.
The program monitors the impact of trade on employment, wages, and working conditions, ensuring that workers are not left behind in economic transformations. It also promotes compliance with labor standards in sectors influenced by foreign and domestic investment. Through research, advocacy, and partnerships, the program seeks to align economic development with decent work principles, including fair wages, job security, and safe working environments. This approach ensures that economic progress benefits workers and contributes to inclusive and sustainable development.
