dc.description.abstractInternational labour standards have grown into a comprehensive system of instruments on work and social policy, backed by a supervisory system designed to address all sorts of problems in their application at the national level. The general objective of this study was to get an insight of the applicability of ILO Standards in the Tanzania’s Health Sector. More specifically the study intended to assess ILO Standards in Tanzania and assess the extent to which Tanzania’s health sector has complied with ILO Standards in their organizations. Questionnaires and interview methods were used to collect data where employees of Mwananyamala Hospital were involved. The Qualitative data analysis technique was applied using content analysis. Content analysis method was appropriate for the analysis of explanatory which was done with the support from Statistical Package Social Science (SPSS). The study findings have revealed that lack of legal status to almost all trade unions and lack of awareness to application of ILO standards contribute to the failure of the satisfactory applicability of ILO standards in Tanzania as compared with other countries. In conclusion therefore, the study findings revealed that ILO standards are not applicable. This is one among the major obstacles of poor and unsatisfactory working standards for many workers in the health sector. For an organization to have effective workers, applicability of ILO standards is vital. ILO standards help workers to be aware of what is needed and their rights. Management of health sectors should consider this issue thoroughly and give priority on ILO standards by sensitizing workers on these standards and their importance. The study has recommended that much more efforts should be directed to knowledge dissemination to the public and more training programs on ILO standards should be given to workers.en_US
