Cooperation for decent work

The project includes activities and topics identified as particularly significant for General Labour Inspectorate Executive Agency (GLI EA) and Norwegian Labour Inspection Authority. The project activities will develop the focus of promoting decent working conditions for employees, fair competition for companies and sustainable welfare systems by information activities, performing joint inspections and sharing of good practices in close cooperation between the labour inspectorates. Promoting decent work, including tackling undeclared work and achieving equal rights, equal pay and equal treatment for all employees is a key priority of common interest to both labour inspectorates. Therefore an information tool about the risk assessment of undeclared work will be developed and implemented on the new GLI EA website, which will be developed under the present project. Guidence and factsheets on the rights and obligations of companies and workers in Bulgaria will be developed. The project will strengthen the bilateral relations between GLI EA and Norwegian Labour Inspection Authority in line with the aims of the bilateral agreement, signed on 29 august 2017 in Trondheim, Norway, such as: - ensuring effective protection of working conditions for workers posted from the country of one of the parties to the agreement to perform work in the territory of the other, or that travels from one country to be employed in the other country; - the cooperation between the both labour inspectorates should be specified in yearly projects, and should be based on dialogue and continuous exchange of information on establishments and on joint inspections of undertakings associated with the countries of both parties to the agreement, on information on the national laws and regulations of the countries, and on the exchange of experiences and best practices.
