The aim of this project was to develop long-term bilateral cooperation network between three Norwegian and five Lithuanian organizations to strengthen tripartite cooperation between employers organizations, trade unions and public authorities transferring good experience from Norway to Lithuania to enhance the implementation of the decent work agenda: raise awareness on health and safety issues and enforcement of labour law and the fight against work-related crime in transport sector of Lithuania.
The project aimed to improve working conditions in Lithuania's transport sector through a bilateral cooperation network with Norwegian partners. The initiative addressed significant issues such as poor working conditions, health and safety challenges, illegal practices, and low awareness of workers' rights in Lithuania's transport sector. By leveraging Norwegian best practices, the project sought to enhance the enforcement of labour laws and combat work-related crime.
The project involved a set of activities, including joint training sessions, international conferences, and awareness campaigns. These activities were designed to raise awareness among employers, trade union members, and labor inspectors about decent work, work-life balance, non-discrimination, and health and safety issues. The project also aimed to strengthen tripartite cooperation between employers, trade unions, and public authorities, fostering a collaborative approach to improving working conditions.
