Who We Are
We are an association of shop stewards and key leaders in Kenya, created out of a concern that social ethical business practices were not being followed in the industries despite there being voluntary systems of self-regulation by way of audits and labor inspections.
Our Goal
To ensure that workers leaders at the shop floor and neighboring communities have an opportunity to consult and promote corporate citizenship and good working conditions.
Our Mandate
To foster collaborative dialogue between workers and actors who affect and those affected by their work. In promoting this dialogue, we have always believed that complimentary role exists between Non-governmental organizations and other stakeholders.
Our Interest
What Makes Us Competent
- Our staff has worked under and been part of various labor rights movements within our target sectors. This has enabled us to have first hand experience of the occurrences of issues affecting workers thus the genesis of our aim to deal with such.
- Our projects are developed, amended and implemented in consultation with partners who also assist in identifying the areas in need of intervention
- We have a qualified research team and close links with our study cases which enables us to obtain maximum and accurate information required to develop our projects.
- Although we are a small size organization, every individual is highly skilled, flexible and responsive, while this makes it affordable and easier to coordinate activities and assign tasks as well as promoting clear channels for accountability.
