Fiji Commerce & Employers’ Federation Industrial Relations Project - Publication Launch

A joint launch of the Fiji Employers Guide to collective Bargaining and the Employers Guide on Gender Equality

The “Employer’s Guide to Collective Bargaining” is intended to be a practical tool for employers and human resources personnel in collective bargaining. It is based on a publication authored by the International Labour Organisation’s (ILO) Bureau for Employers’ Activities (ACTEMP) in collaboration with the International Organisation of Employers (IOE). It has been adapted for the local context by the Fiji Commerce and Employers Federation (FCEF).

 The joint publication "Employers Guide to Gender Equality ; Creating Gender responsive workplaces for women and men in Fiji" by FCEF and the International Labour Organization broadly outlines gender responsive international workplace practices (based on ILO principles and international conventions) whilst situating relevant examples that are applicable in the Fijian context. This approach provides practitioners information but also enables a pragmatic, innovative application of relevant gender equality principles.

The publications will be launched at the Tanoa Syklodge Hotel in Nadi on Friday 31st May 2013.
