In September 2024, Lebanon witnessed a sharp escalation in large-scale cross-border attacks, resulting in significant loss of life and severe damage to the economy. The recent violence has caused immense suffering. The ILO has developed an Emergency Response Plan to mitigate the impact of the conflict on the residents of Lebanon, in accordance with its mandate to advance social protection and ensure decent work opportunities and economic sustainability in the longer term.
