ILO-6942
A supervisor stands by a production line in the sewing department of a garment factory in Ethiopia.
The 42 factories enrolled in Better Work Ethiopia experienced a production downturn in the first quarter of 2020, with order cancellations by major buyers and a shortage of raw materials, which posed a significant obstacle to meet their operating and administrative costs. Even in this complex scenario, the programme started to roll out an innovative, integrated factory service model combining the expertise of various technical departments of the ILO. As a result of the programme’s advisory services, factories established OSH committees and strengthened their OSH management systems and social dialogue mechanisms.
