1. INTRODUCTION
The Labor Management Procedures (LMP) is developed to manage risks under the Strategic Road Connectivity and TradeImprovementProject (SRCTIP) – Trade Facilitation Component implemented by the Ministry of the Industry Commerce and Supply (MoICS) and Ministry of the Agriculture and Livestock Development (MoALD) and funded by the World Bank. The LMP sets
out the Program’s approach to meeting national requirements as well as the objectives of the relevant World Bank’s Environmental and Socials Standard 2: Labor and Working Conditions (ESS2) and Standard 4: Community Health and Safety (ESS4).
The LMP is developed at this stage of the project given that the scale and exact locations of project activities to be implemented under this component are not yet determined. Details of the investments will be determined when the relevant feasibility studies as well as Environmental and Social Studies are conducted during the detail design phase.
The key labor and worker-related risks and impacts associated with Project activities may include the Sexual Exploitation and abuse (SEA) risks, associated with workers as well as community health and safety, and the risks associated with labor impact. The World Bank has rated the overall Environment and Social risk of the project as High, which indicates a high likelihood of adverseimpacts associated with project implementation.
The High-risk rating indicates that the risks are required to be well understood and expected to have potential impact as they would require appropriate possible efforts to be avoided, minimized or managed through procedures, including procedures set out in this LMP. However, SRCTIPTrade Facilitation Component is committed to, on a continuous basis, throughout the Project; evaluate risks and impact to have in place adequate measures and procedures to manage adverse impacts.
