The International Labour Organisation has picked the Cyprus Employers
and Industrialists’ Federation (OEV) to undertake the mentoring of
the employers organisation of Armenia.
The ILO and the International Organisation of Employers (IOE)
said OEV was most suited for the mentoring programme that will
be underway in 2010, primarily because it is regarded as a model
employers organisation.
The mentoring programme includes helping to lay the proper foundations
of the sister organisation in Armenia and the right structure of its
mission and aims, as well as its effective operation.
The priorities in Armenia are to set up sector employers associations,
the successful negotiations of collective labour agreements with the
local trade unions, initiate a consultation mechanism with the state,
recruitment of new members, provision of services, as well as health
and security in the workplace.
