The role of the Private Sector The level of private sector development in the region is quite low even in the major urban areas like Logia and Assaitta. Except large scale commercial farms which are owned by private and/or state, there are no manufacturing industries in the region. Among the major private businesses that are active in towns especially Logia are merchandise trading, retail shops and services particularly hotels and accommodations. Trade Unions Region wide trade union does not exist in Afar region because of the underdevelopment of private sector especially the lack of manufacturing industries that would create labour force. So far, there are only 6 workers associations that have been organized independently in their respective locations that include Dupti, Gewane, Awash, etc which are state and privately owned commercial farms and also the MIDROCK marble manufacturing in Awash. The major task of the workers association is ensuring that employment contracts are in accordance with the laws applicable and protecting the rights of workers. Cooperatives In Afar regional state, cooperatives are the other NSA typology which is large in terms of number and membership. The establishment and expansion of cooperative started in 2002 and currently there are about 196 different types with a total of 10,382 members. Nevertheless, the total capital of these cooperatives is smaller at the time of their formation 6 years ago. Table 6 below depicts the types of cooperatives, membership and also total capital.
