Occupational Training of Trainers Manual: Manual for Improving Working Conditions of Young Workers in the Rwandan Tea Sector

This Manual first outlines the various hazards and risks in the tea sector of Rwanda, and then presents modules for addressing these hazards and risks based on the participatory risk assessment approach. The training is targeted at tea growers’ representatives, tea cooperatives’ representatives, tea factories’ representatives, and members of the Federation of Rwandan Tea Cooperatives (FERWACOTHE) as well as other key stakeholders in the tea sector such as NGOs, Winrock staff, district and central labor inspectorate staff. The Manual is designed primarily for improving the working conditions of tea growers, especially young workers between 16 and 17 years old. The training can be delivered through multiple partners and platforms, including with the support of Winrock as well as the Department of Labor within MIFOTRA.
