The International Labour Organization (ILO) and its constituents in South Sudan, namely the Ministry of Labour (MoL), South Sudan Workers Trade Union Federation (SSWTUF) and Employers Association of South Sudan (EASS) have been engaging and consulting towards development of the country’s first-generation DWCP since 2011. A draft DWCP was developed in 2013 but its validation and finalization were halted by political conflict, which erupted in December 2013.
