BASIC FUNCTIONS OF THE POSITION
Incumbent of this position will be directly supervised by the Labor Attaché and be a critical member of the otherwise one-person Labor Section.

The Labor Section achieves this through research and reporting, advocacy with stakeholders, grant administration, and organizing visits. The incumbent will support the Labor Section by researching developments in labor rights; writing English-language summaries of news items; analyzing and translating government laws and decrees; maintaining a wide range of contacts in relevant government agencies, international organizations, worker organizations, industry organizations, and other labor sector stakeholders; organizing meetings and providing informal English interpretation when needed; helping control visits from DOL headquarters; and providing administrative support to the section, such as procurement and travel.
