International Labour Organization Strategy for Gender Mainstreaming in the Employment Sector

Strategy for gender mainstreaming in the Employment Sector for the implementation of the ILO Action Plan for Gender Equality 2008-09 / International Labour Office. – Geneva: ILO, 2009, 24 p. [Stuart Basefsky]

  • “Gender equality is at the centre of the Employment Sector’s mission to promote productive employment and decent work for men and women. As men and women experience the labour market differently we have an obligation to ensure that all of our activities have a positive influence on gender equality. As such, this Gender Mainstreaming Strategy for the Employment Sector has been developed with the aim to ensure that gender equality is fully integrated into all our technical work related to formulation, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of employment policies, programmes, and other actions. This Strategy provides a framework to ensure that gender analysis and planning are introduced into all of our activities. It also provides the basis for better monitoring and impact assessment of gender mainstreaming in the Sector’s outputs, especially those at the national level.”
