Labor Sector Assessment Guide
Source: USAID | Year: 2010
This Strategic Assessment Guide lays out the methodology recommended to conduct labor sector assessments, outlining the necessary steps to be undertaken prior to departure, while in the country, and upon return to home base; the various quantitative and qualitative data that should be solicited, and a range of questions that need to be probed while in the field and addressed in the assessment report. Approaches to the Country Labor Sector Assessments are elaborated, and an information checklist is included to guide the analysts to ensure adequate coverage while in the field.
This paper, and the larger project it introduces, deals with all of these definitions and issues through a focus on the “labor sector” and the role it plays in development. The labor sector is the arena in which youth as well as adult men and women prepare for and participate in the world of work. A focus on the labor sector matters because of its impact on people’s abilities to find decent work, realize sustainable livelihoods, and raise themselves and their families out of poverty.
