HiiL has been active in Tunisia since 2012. As one of our focus countries, our goal is to contribute to a justice system that is more accessible, responsive and people-centred. Since 2017, our work has been grounded in national Justice Needs and Satisfaction (JNS) data, helping to identify priority issues and co-develop practical solutions so more people can resolve their justice problems.<\/span><\/p>

In 2021, we launched a dedicated multi-year programme centred on improving access to justice in employment-related disputes: a problem identified as one of the most common legal challenges in the country.<\/span><\/p>

In 2025, we begin a complementary two-year initiative supporting justice solutions for micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (mSMEs). These businesses make up 99% of Tunisia\u2019s economy, yet face persistent barriers in areas like registration, compliance, taxation and dispute resolution.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Employment Justice<\/h3>

Employment disputes are the most common and serious justice problem in Tunisia. The 2024 eJNS survey<\/a><\/span><\/strong> revealed that 45% of legal problems remain unresolved, with workplace issues among the most pressing. The 2025 follow-up study<\/a><\/span><\/strong> confirmed this persistent justice gap: half of all problems reported in 2023 had been abandoned without resolution, only 31% were resolved, and 12% were still ongoing after two to three years, clearly showing the limits of the current system in addressing employment and other disputes effectively.<\/p>

To address this, we convened 25 national stakeholders in a Justice Innovation Lab<\/span><\/a><\/strong>. The Lab led to the design of the Employment Justice Platform (‘Monde du Travail’)<\/strong>, spearheaded by the Ministry of Social Affairs and the Labour Inspection. Integrated into the Labour Inspection\u2019s systems, it will support 350 inspectors and aims to reach 50,000 workers annually. An independent Ecorys Cost\u2013Benefit Analysis<\/span><\/a> confirmed its viability, showing strong social and economic returns.<\/p>
