dc.description.abstractThis is a study on the provision of social security to workers within the EAC. It is with a specific focus of Kenya and Tanzania as they relate to Common Market Protocol that facilitates the free movement of labour. Like any other EAC Partner State, the provision of social security rights to workers, and ensuring that the rights acquired by migrant workers are maintained as they move between Kenya and Tanzania and the vice versa is an uphill task. This is due to the inadequacies and differences in laws governing social security in the two countries. The research advocates for social justice and increase in labour mobility. It therefore proposes reforms that will maintain the social security rights acquired upon migration of workers within the EAC. This includes the immediate and interim measure to long term measures. Some of these measures are ratification of international conventions which promote the right to social security and reform social security laws at the state and Community level. Other measures are adoption of reciprocal agreements on social security as well as coordination and harmonization of laws that protect workers in the Community.en_US
