The ILO Country Office for Indonesia (CO-Jakarta) is responsible for the ILO's programmes and activities in Indonesia and Timor-Leste. Labour and employment issues are at the top of the development agenda in both countries, calling for substantive ILO support.
Using ILO's unique tripartite structure, CO-Jakarta works in close collaboration with the Government, workers' and employers' organizations to promote decent work for all. The concept of decent work is built on four strategic pillars:
1) the promotion of fundamental principles and rights at work;
2) employment, enterprise creation and human resource development;
3) social protection; and
4) social dialogue.
The ILO’s Decent Work Country Programme is centered around supporting Indonesia and Timor-Leste, through our tripartite constituents, to move towards to an integrated development that links rights at work and social dialogue with employment policies and social protection.
Finally, CO-Jakarta's role as ASEAN liaison Office is to expand cooperation between the two organizations. The main fields of collaboration include: full and productive employment creation, occupational health and safety, protection and promotion of the rights of migrant workers, youth entrepreneurship, labour standards and industrial relations.
