National Labor Council
The National Labor Council was created in 2005 by Law 547. It is a body that seeks to promote dialogue and foster intersectoral consensus-building among different stakeholders in the world of work, i.e. the government, workers and employers. Representatives of government agencies, the private sector and trade unions participate in the Council. The Council advises the government on the formulation and monitoring of national economic plans, and proposes legislative or regulatory reforms they deem necessary on labor-related issues.
Institutional design
Formalization: is the innovation embedded in the constitution or legislation, in an administrative act, or not formalized at all?
Frequency: how often does the innovation take place: only once, sporadically, or is it permanent or regular?
Mode of Selection of Participants: is the innovation open to all participants, access is restricted to some kind of condition, or both methods apply?
Type of participants: those who participate are individual citizens, civil society organizations, private stakeholders or a combination of those?
Decisiveness: does the innovation takes binding, non-binding or no decision at all?
Co-governance: is there involvement of the government in the process or not?
