The ILO Country Office for Indonesia and Timor-Leste covers both Indonesia and Timor-Leste. Indonesia has been a member of the ILO five years after its independence in 1950; while Timor-Leste as one of the young countries recovering from the post-conflict disorder joined the ILO one year after its independence in 2003.
Labour and employment issues are at the top of the development agenda in both countries aimed to advance social justice and promote decent work in a close collaboration with the tripartite and development partners to move towards an integrated development that links rights at work and social dialogue with employment policies and social protection.
