Description

The primary outcome of the action has been to position the Directorate for Social Security of the Ministry of Labour and Employment Promotion (MTPE) of Peru in the policy area of extending social protection to atypical workers. The report prepared by the experts from France and Spain was meant to constitute a piece of comparative knowledge to feed the institutional debate. The peer-to-peer dialogue allowed to broaden the horizon of the debate and reflection on the state of social protection of independent workers and workers of small and medium enterprises in Peru, but also to formulate a policy report which puts forward reasonable tools and approaches for advancing social protection in the area of atypical work.
