Prime Minister Employment Programme (PMEP) is a national flagship programme; launched on 13 February 2019; that drives the labour market interventions to promote employment opportunities in the country. The goal of the programme is to enhance domestic employment opportunities and promote social protection objectives to the age group of 18-59 in the country.
PMEP is supported by the Youth Employment Transformation Initiative (YETI) Project; under the subsidised loan agreement with International Development Association (The World Bank Group); to address the gap in the labour supply side intervention and complement ongoing initiatives on the labour demand side.
The GoN has set the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) target, particularly ‘SDG Target 8.5 – By 2030 achieve full and productive employment and descent work for all women and men, including for young people and persons with disability, and equal pay for work of equal value’.
