The Confederation of Ethiopian Trade Unions called on the government to ratify international labour laws related to domestic workers, immigrant workers, and harassment in workplaces.
The confederation asked the government for the ratification and effective implementation of ILO's convention migration for employment convention and migrant workers convention, domestic workers convention and violence and harassment convention.
President of the confederation, Kassahun Follo says the laws will enable the establishment of a good migrant labour force that will protect victims of violence and harassment and ensure gender equality.
