SUMMARY


Seeking a service provider to strengthen labor rights protections in the garment industry through worker support protocols, advocacy assistance, organizing training, and compliance integration. The work emphasizes forced labor prevention, worker protection, and support for labor rights organizations.

DESCRIPTION


The procuring organization is seeking a vendor to provide services that advance labor rights in the garment industry. The scope includes developing a protocol to refer workers to victim support services for health, psychosocial, and other social support needs.

The selected vendor will also support local labor rights organizations and civil society groups in strengthening strategic advocacy, case documentation, and engagement with trade ministries and labor inspectorates related to forced labor concerns. Additional responsibilities include offering legal and technical assistance for union registration, branch expansion, or, where unionization is legally or practically constrained, the formation of worker committees.

The work further includes conducting safe organizing skills training, including risk assessment and safeguards for workers who may face threats or retaliation for reporting labor rights abuses. The vendor is also expected to support the integration of these protocols into supplier contracts, audit frameworks, and compliance programs, including risk-based supplier onboarding, monitoring, and termination or remediation procedures.
