The primary objective of the Reintegration Manager is to work across PLF streams and to support labour sending units (and other stakeholders) to implement activities that contribute to the successful reintegration of returning PALM workers.

Mainstream reintegration principles and approaches in relevant existing activities (including pre-departure briefings, monitoring activities, worker welfare approaches etc) – that benefit both short and long-term PALM workers.
Design and implement reintegration-specific activities. These may include activities in Australia or Pacific-sending countries.
Coordinate with other donors and development partners, including IOM, ILO and other Australian-funded programs on their reintegration activities – ensuring assistance to sending countries and other stakeholders is coordinated and complementary.
Monitor, evaluate and research activities and issues relevant to reintegration, including social and cultural issues, skills training, business development.
Work with a team of LSU based Reintegration Coordinators, to support the reintegration efforts of each sending country. This support will include:
Travelling to sending countries to support Reintegration Coordinators to develop workplans aligned with LSU priorities and to design and implement relevant activities.
Ensuring all reintegration activities contribute to the gender equality, disability and social inclusion (GEDSI) outcomes of the PALM scheme.
Developing materials that support and enhance LSU-implementation of reintegration activities.
Support data collection on reintegration outcomes (with the Quality, Learning and Performance stream), including surveys and interviews with returning workers and their families.
Ensure that PLF’s approach to reintegration is informed by best practice and relevant research, including:
Maintaining a library of relevant research and literature, regularly shared with PLF teams to facilitate learning on reintegration.
Networking and coordinating with labour sending and receiving countries, civil society organisations, relevant donors, programs, and multilateral organisations.
Work with the QLP team to monitor and evaluate progress of reintegration activities, provide opportunity for lessons learned across the Pacific and Timor Leste, and contribute to program reporting.
