The committee aims to support female workers’ participation in the early education sector and propose solutions to improve its performance.

The committee reviewed proposals to enhance private sector partnerships for early education and the “Training and Wages Support” programme, aiming to establish professional paths and link them to social insurance, preparing for the end of temporary contract formulas.
