A Worker Advice Centre established as a UnionAID project in Apia Samoa has been acknowledged by the International Organisation as a model for other Pacific countries.
Focussed primarily on private sector workers the centre established in by Samoa First Union (SFU) provides invaluable advice to workers on employment rights, including workers going to New Zealand under our Government seasonable employment scheme.
The ILO has advised that it will provide funding support for the centre and intends to also support the establishment of of similar centres in other Pacific countries.
