Creating Livelihoods

Creating Livelihoods

With over 2 million people reaching employable age each year, CERB aims to re-focus the private sector’s contribution to Pakistan’s economic growth by raising capacity for responsible business conduct. This means reducing labour exploitation, ensuring better working conditions, providing equal employment opportunities, adopting a no-tolerance approach towards discrimination against Disabled persons and other marginalized groups, compensating workers in the supply chain with a living wage, and implementing social protection in case of illness.

To support creating livelihoods our work is centered around job creation, workers’ rights, and DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) in the formal sector – and includes:

SDG Goal 8

Capacity-building on SDGs 3, 4 and 8 through our flagship SDG Leadership Programme.

 

Spotlighting the increasing need to address mental wellbeing in the workplace.

Removing Barriers to Employment

Removing barriers to employment for Disabled persons through infrastructural accessibility and inclusive workspaces.
