Partner countries of free trade agreements (FTA) that the Government Accountability Office (GAO) selected -- the Dominican Republic-Central America-United States Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA-DR) and the FTAs with Colombia, Oman, and Peru -- have taken steps to implement labour provisions and other initiatives to strengthen labour rights. This book examines steps that selected partner countries have taken, and U.S. assistance they have received, to implement these provisions and other labour initiatives and the reported results of such steps; submissions regarding possible violations of FTA labour provisions that DOL has accepted and any problems related to the submission process; and the extent to which U.S. agencies monitor and enforce implementation of FTA labour provisions and report results to Congress.
