DR-CAFTA and Labor
The labor provisions of the Dominican Republic-Central America Free Trade Agreement (DR-CAFTA) protect core labor rights for workers in the United States and the Central American countries and require that labor laws are enforced effectively by all member countries. DR-CAFTA reinforces the importance of rights and protections for workers; establishes mechanisms for improving labor law and enforcement; and ensures that workers, like consumers and businesses, reap the benefits of liberalized trade.
