1. Programme Officer, Extending Social Security Coverage in ASEAN Project

The three year ILO/Japan Project on Extending Social Security Coverage in ASEAN (2016-2018) intends to generate better knowledge, understanding and expertise on extension of social protection, and stimulate South-South cooperation across ASEAN Member States. The regional Project also provides direct support to Indonesia and Viet Nam, and in a certain extend to Myanmar, for increasing social security coverage, in particular among informal economy workers, self-employed and micro, small and medium enterprises (MSME) workers. Lessons learnt, experiences and good practices from the three countries will be disseminated across the ASEAN Member States and worldwide.

In Viet Nam, the project guides the government and social partners in the identification of concrete and evidenced-based policy recommendations for increasing coverage by improving compliance of social security laws and enhancing the institutional framework. The Project may identify with the government and social partners one or two sectors for direct interventions in view of replicating good practices in other sectors.

Under the general guidance of the Regional Chief Technical Advisor of the Project (based in Bangkok, Thailand) and the direct supervision by the Director of the ILO Country Office for Viet Nam, the Programme Officer is responsible for the development, implementation and monitoring of Project activities in Viet Nam. The Programme Officer will ensure the highest technical integrity of the Project outputs, as identified in the Project document.
