This umbrella-Labor Management Procedures Framework (U-LMPF) is intended to address the specific labor related risks and impacts that are anticipated to occur because of the implementation of the Harmonizing and Improving Statistics in West and Central Africa (HISWACA) project. The LMP sets out a formal system by which the Project Implementation Units (PIUs) in the beneficiary countries and regional implementing Units (RIUs) and project contractors will manage and implement mitigation measures to avoid or reduce impacts on workers. Labor Management Procedures (LMP) include the policies, rules, regulations, procedures and competencies which govern and regulate the workforce including skilled, semi-skilled and unskilled workers in an agency or organization. The general expectation is that the respective organization should have in place systems designed to best ensure workers are able to safely participate in employment.
