Following various pan-African initiatives, a new pioneering survey was undertaken to document the current status of working conditions in selected sectors in Tanzania and to draw attention to related policy gaps. The survey was carried out based on the global version of the European Working Conditions Survey which had been developed jointly by the International Labour Organization (ILO) and the European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions (Eurofound). A similar survey was also implemented in Mozambique.
