The consultations mark an important step towards building a more formalized, inclusive & sustainable ASM sector in Malawi. The policy is expected to strengthen formalization, promote OSH, enhance environmental protection, support job creation, & expand access to social protection

This week, Gov of Malawi, thru Ministry of Energy & Mining, is conducting simultaneous consultations in the Northern, Central and Southern Regions on the draft ASM Policy, supposed by @ilolusaka under the Global Accelerator @JointSDGFund @Wellington_ILO @MickelleHughes @UNMalawi

Malawi takes a bold step forward, validating the draft Workers’ Compensation Bill—modernizing the current Act to reflect evolving labour market realities & align with international standards, ILO C102. 🇲🇼 @ilolusaka @UNMalawi @JointSDGFund @Wellington_ILO @soc_protection
