During this meeting, attention was focused on creating a more adequate structure for the Tripartite Platform, which consists of the three parties: the employers' representatives, the workers' representatives, and the Government of Curaçao. This structure will determine how meetings will be conducted and the themes and priorities that will be addressed in each meeting.
The meeting took place in a positive atmosphere, with ample space for each party to dialogue and share information with each other on how to reach a more effective structure. The next meeting is scheduled for May 5, 2023.
