Result of Service<br>The consultant is expected to provide a final report that includes recommendations to ensure alignment and consistency between the internal regulations related to the Labour Law, particularly those affecting the implementation of flexible work arrangements, and to develop draft by-laws governing the implementation of these new flexible work arrangements.<br> Work Location<br>Remote<br> Expected duration<br>3 months<br> Duties and Responsibilities<br>Background In May 2025, the Lebanese Parliament adopted Law No. 3/2025, amending the Labour Law to formally recognize flexible, part-time, and remote work arrangements and to extend National Social Security Fund (NSSF) coverage of workers. This new law was proposed by the Head of the Women and Children Parliamentary Committee following a process that included a case study on childcare in Lebanon, public hearings and dialogues, in addition to a legal study and meetings, all in collaboration between ESCWA and the committee. This reform represents a milestone in Lebanon’s labour and social protection framework, aiming to promote inclusive and equitable access to employment. It is particularly significant for advancing women’s economic participation, as flexible and family-friendly work arrangements can help reduce barriers that prevent women - especially those with caregiving responsibilities - from entering or remaining in the workforce. In order to ensure the effective implementation of the new law, ESCWA, UN Women, and the International Labour Organization (ILO) joined hands to provide technical assistance to the Lebanese Women and Children Parliamentary Committee to support its follow-up on the implementation of the law as part of the Parliament’s role in post-legislative scrutiny. The process entailed a legal study/advice to propose reforms and updates to the internal laws and regulations of the Lebanese National Social Security Fund (NSSF). These reforms and updates are necessary to allow for the implementation of Law No. 3/2025 without misuse of the new arrangements for fraudulent purposes, which, in turn, serves as a foundational input to guide the actuarial feasibility study leading to the full implementation of the labour law reform while also ensuring the benefits of this reform are utilized appropriately and fairly. These efforts must be aligned with the Labor Law and its implementing by-laws. Therefore, updates and reforms to the Ministry of Labor's by-laws are necessary to ensure the full and coherent implementation of the Labor Law reforms. Objective and methodology Against this backdrop, ESCWA, as it continues its technical support to ensure a full implementation of Law No. 3/2025, seeks to hire a consultant to undertake necessary research, advise and support the reform of the by-laws of the labour code in full alignment with the NSSF internal regulations. The consultant will work in collaboration with the Ministry of Labour, the NSSF and the technical team working on the implementation of the law reform.
