Will the Law Overlay also be available for SLCP assessments in non-Better Work countries?

Not yet. In 2021, the Law Overlay will only be available for select Better Work countries, following agreement with national constituents. Over time, SLCP will introduce Law Overlays in other countries. Better Work will support the development of overlays for other Better Work countries and will explore how to support overlay development for non-Better Work countries in the next iteration of Step 1 of the Tool. It is important to Better Work and SLCP that national constituents, along with other industry actors, trust in the Tool and data and see that their feedback is also incorporated. Once Step 1 of the Tool (under CAF) is optimized through this initial implementation period, Better Work anticipates it will be more manageable to support updates and scaling of the Tool to other Better Work countries. At that point, the ILO may be in a position to support development of Law Overlays in non-BW countries, on the condition that such a future version of the Tool (v1.5) reflects its needs in relation to laws, ILS and social dialogue data.
