On September 23, 2026, the Tunisian Ministry of Social Affairs, in partnership with the International Organization for Migration, launched a new digital platform called "Labor Management Platform". This platform is part of the "Responsible and Inclusive Social Dialogue for Sustainable Social Cohesion in Tunisia" project. The platform aims to modernize and digitalize the work of the labor inspection, providing a more efficient and effective way of managing labor-related data.

The Minister of Social Affairs, Essam Al-Hamr, stated that the platform represents a new tool for the labor inspection, enabling it to carry out its tasks more effectively. He emphasized that the platform is a significant step towards the digital transformation of the Tunisian administration, allowing for the transition from paper-based work to digital systems that provide accurate numbers and statistics, while also saving time.

The Labor Management Platform provides a shared information system between the Ministry of Social Affairs and other ministries and administrations, such as the National Social Security Fund and the National Register of Enterprises. This platform will enable the different stakeholders to access and share information, promoting better coordination and cooperation.

The launch of the platform is part of the Tunisian government's efforts to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of its administration. The digitalization of labor management is expected to have a positive impact on the country's labor market, enabling better monitoring and regulation of labor-related issues.
