The Government of the Republic of Maldives through Ministry of Economic Development is implementing the Sustainable and Integrated Labor Services (SAILS) Project funded by the World Bank. The objective of the project is to introduce an unemployment insurance (UI) scheme for formal sector workers. In relation to the UI scheme the government is also planning to reform and extend its Job Center (JC), at the Ministry of Economic Development (MoED), as a means of supporting unemployed UI beneficiaries to regain productive employment, but also to extend access to active labor market programs (ALMPs) to all unemployed Maldivians regardless of their eligibility for UI benefits. The Ministry intends to apply part of the proceeds for the selection of a Gender and Safeguards Specialist for the implementation of this project.
