      The action in collaboration with the OSH Directorate of the Ministry of Labour, Employment, Veteran and Social Policy, aimed to promote and support the development of a preventive safety and health at work in Serbia. Experts from the Czechia, Spain and Latvia mobilised by SOCIEUX+ reviewed guidelines of the work at high and low temperature and trained OSH Administration and stakeholders on how to ensure the health of workers at high and low temperature. Two technical cooperation activities in Belgrade resulted with updated guidelines for safe and healthy outdoor work and increased knowledge for the OSH Administration, inspectors and social partners. The experts also contributed to the development of a brochure for wider distribution as part of the OSH Administration's awareness-raising activities.

        Description
        The Organic Law on Disabilities and the Labour Code of Ecuador establishes a mandatory quota of labour inclusion of persons with disabilities for the public and private sector with a minimum payroll of 25 workers. The Ministry of Labour of Ecuador, as the governing body of public policies in the labour field, needs to establish synergies between the supply and demand of employment in the country, through the development of innovative regulations that promote and facilitate the hiring of people with disabilities. Spanish experts mobilised by SOCIEUX+ contributed to the elaboration of a Diagnosis to know the degree of inclusion of people with disabilities in the Public Employment Service of the Ministry, and guidelines and recommendations were built to mainstream the disability approach. All of this was complemented with direct training for the institution's workers, especially labour inspectors for the regulation of companies on this topic.
