Social Protection & Labour Policies

This sub-sub-indicator assesses to which extent government policies reduce the risk of becoming poor, assist those who are poor to better manage further risks, and ensure a minimal level of welfare to all people. Interventions include: social safety net programs, pension and old age savings programs; protection of basic labour standards; regulations to reduce segmentation and inequity in labour markets; active labour market programs, such as public works or job training; and community driven initiatives.
