How are OFRs technical cooperation projects implemented?
Once agreement has been reached on where to target funding and for what kind of project, OFR staff work closely with the host country partners (government, employer organizations, and worker organizations) to set the objectives of the project and to define the respective roles of OFR and the relevant stakeholders in managing and implementing the project. Actual implementation of project activities is done by a variety of entities – other USDOL agencies with relevant technical expertise (such as the Occupational Safety and Health Administration), other U.S. Government agencies (such as the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service), and a variety of consultants, non-governmental organizations, and firms that are awarded contracts or grants by OFR.
