Strengthening Government Labor Law Enforcement

NOTE: This is a Notice of Intent. An announcement is not related to this notice. We are not accepting applications at this time. Subject to the availability of funds, USDOL’s Bureau of International Labor Affairs (ILAB) intends to award, through a competitive process, one cooperative agreement to an organization to implement a project with the objective of effective government enforcement of labor laws that are consistent with relevant labor standards. The over-arching strategy for achieving this project objective is to target and address gaps to support implementation of a comprehensive labor law enforcement system, focusing specifically on a country’s legal framework, labor inspection system, and the labor adjudication system. Initially, the recipient will work in Honduras and Georgia. Other countries will be chosen in consultation with USDOL. The Employment and Training Administration (ETA)’s Office of Grants Management anticipates publishing a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) as soon as possible and not later than August (this timing is subject to change). Please refer to: http://www.dol.gov/ilab/grants/ for general guidelines and examples of previous cooperative agreement applications. This notice does not include an FOA or any attachments. It only constitutes a notice of USDOL’s intent to publish an FOA at a later date. Interested applicants are encouraged to monitor www.grants.gov for the FOA because, if an FOA is published, grants.gov is the method by which the FOA will be made available to the public. No email or paper copies of any FOA will be provided.
