Info

Make clear that decision making power can be shared between men and women. Discuss this possibility with the participants: why do they think they should have decision making power about certain resources and benefits and how do they think this can become possible? Tip The resource cards are only a starter. The trainer should encourage the participants to come up with resources that are relevant in their own situation. The resources given in the exercise are more suitable for a rural household. When the exercise is done with an urban target group you should make a selection of the cards and ask the participants to come up with more resources.

Chapter 4 Fundamental Rights in Life and at Work Introduction In this chapter you find sessions about fundamental rights at work and in life. The chapter starts with a session about the different types of rights for Cambodians, like fundamental human rights, constitutional rights and national rights. This session can be used as a starting point for all types of training about rights. It is followed by a session about the fundamental rights at work in general. The four fundamental rights at work are worked out in more detail in the sessions 4.3 to 4.7: 1. no to discrimination, yes to equality (4.3) 2. no to suppression of freedom for workers to organize (4.4) 3. no to child labour, yes to education (4.5 and 4.6) 4. no to forced labour, yes to free labour (4.7) In the other sessions attention is paid to the rights of different groups of workers, like homeworkers or migrant workers and to specific topics that are of importance to especially women workers. Issues covered are for instance: workers with family responsibilities, overtime and maternity protection. There are also a number of sessions that pay attention to different forms of violence against women and to their reproductive health rights. Most sessions can be done with both formal and informal sector workers. However, some sessions are only appropriate for formal sector workers, i.e. those workers protected by the Labour Code 1997. Therefore, check the intended target group for each session. Learning objectives After the sessions participants should be more aware about: • The basic rights they have as human beings and Cambodian citizens • The responsibilities they have as citizens regarding their rights • Where to go with legal problems • Dealing with the police • The fundamental rights at work • How to fight inequality issues at work • The right to organize • The specific rights of children and youth • Child labour • Forced labour • Sexual harassment • Maternity protection • Occupational safety and health • Home work • Problems migrant workers can face • Rights on the following issues: - Violence against women - Rape and abortion - Trafficking of women and children 46
