The objectives of this study are to explore the current situation of disabled people in Yangon Region and to examine the physical, social, economic and health challenges of physical disabled workers in selected townships. This study used descriptive method with quantitative approach. The result found that there are five disabled care centers and seven private disabled organizations in Yangon Region. Disabled workers who find jobs by themselves are facing more physical, financial and health challenges than the workers who get job from disabled organizations. On the other hand, economic challenges like wage discrimination are more faced by the workers who get job from disabled organizations. This study suggested that it is needed to create disabled friendly environment in the workplace and give awareness of the funding support program for disabled workers who find job by themselves.

  • Governing Body Geneva, March 2005
    INTERNATIONAL LABOUR OFFICE GB.292/7/2 292nd Session Governing Body Geneva, March 2005 SEVENTH ITEM ON THE AGENDA Developments concerning the question of the observance by the Government of Myanmar of the Forced Labour Convention, 1930 (No. 29) Report of the Liaison Officer a.i. I. Background 1. Following discussion of the item at its 291st Session (November 2004), the Governing Body adopted the following conclusions: The Governing Body, having heard the explanations provided by the Permanent Representative of Myanmar, Ambassador Mya Than, proceeded to examine in detail the information and analysis provided in the documents which was supplemented during the debate, notably on the part of the Workers. It seems overall that the Governing Body remains gravely concerned by developments in the situation and the continued impunity of those who exact forced labour. More particularly, as regards the high treason judgement discussed at the previous session, as well as by the Committee on the Application of Standards of the International Labour Conference, the Workers’ group, the Employers’ group and many Governments, while recognizing that the judgement by the Supreme Court did answer the fundamental question of the legality of the contacts with the ILO, expressed regret at the continued detention of the persons concerned when their guilt had not been established, and called for their immediate release or pardon. In the circumstances, the Workers’ group, the Employers’ group, and a number of Governments were of the opinion that reactivation of the measures to be taken under article 33 and in accordance with the Conference resolution of 2000 would be fully justified.
