I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1. The Technical and Vocational Education and Training Sector Development Project (TVETSDP) supports the Royal Government of Cambodia’s commitment to the development of high-quality, skilled and capable human resources to meet the immediate and long-term needs of economic growth and socio-economic development. The Project/Program is comprising of four outputs include output-1: increased access to TVET programs (5 sub outputs); output-2: improved quality and relevance of the TVET system (7 sub outputs); output-3: increased involvement of employers in technical and vocational education and training delivery (3 sub outputs); and output-4: strengthened governance and management of TVET delivery (5 sub outputs). 2. To achieve the objectives mentioned above, the buildings, infrastructures, amenities, and facilities within the premises of public TVET institutions are needed to new build and upgrading to serve for the Project/Program. The environmental implication is category B, due to the implementation of civil works, therefore, the environmental safeguard is triggered to cope with the civil work implementations, particularly, the Environmental Management Plan (EMP) in Initial Environmental Examinations (IEE). 3. The Project/Program civil works of building constructions and upgrading included the additional financing of ADF have been made a provision to the 23 public TVET institutions and DGTVET, which are the original ADB financing covers 13 public TVET institutions and additional financing of AFD covers 18 public TVET institutions, both are overlapping each other’s. The following table is delineated the scopes of civil works, status, building types within outputs/sub outputs of the Project/Program. 4. During this semi-annual report, from 1st January to 30th June 2018, there have been four public TVET institutions implementing civil work as well as environmental safeguards’ implementations including: (i) woman’s dormitory building in NPIA/Siem Reap; (ii) woman’s dormitory in Bateay Mean Chey PTC; (iii) new classroom building in BIT have been awarded contract since 27 December 2017 to T.S.K. Construction Co., Ltd and commencement of civil work during mid-January 2018; and (iv)woman’s dormitory and workshop building in Koh Kong PTC has been awarded contract to General Building Construction Co., Ltd (G.B.C.) on 27 December 2017 and started civil work during mid-January 2018. 5. Awarded contractors were orientated/introduced about social and environmental safeguards on 23rd January 2018 at project office in Phnom Penh, the attention was paid to environmental monitoring checklists and environmental management plan (EMP) implementations. The commencement of civil works is taken longer time for piling and method of piling, whether using diesel hummer machines driven or pressing, this is taking long negotiation between the executing agency (EA) and the contractor. The safeguards specialist together with involved officers have scheduled visiting Battambang Institute of Technology (BIT/Battambang) on 9 May 2018, National Polytechnic Institute of Angkor (NPIA/Siem Reap) on 11 May 2018, and Koh Kong Provincial Training Center (PTC) on 9-12 July 2018. The main objective of these visits is to assess the EMP implementations by contractors, environmental monitoring checklist completions, orientating and introducing environmental safeguards, Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and personal hygiene, provision of adequate drinking water supply and sanitation facilities, implementation of occupational health and safety to all staff and workers at campsites.

6. The corrective actions have been made to staff and workers in the campsites including the proper wearing of safety helmets, safety boot/shoes and strictly implementing the EMP particular the pollution from used engine oil needs to proper maintaining, human waste should be in appropriate septic tanks/chambers, littering the solid waste should be in proper rubbish bins. 7. Due to the locations of civil works constructions are far from residents and premises of public TVET institutions are fencing enclosure so far there is no complaint yet from likely affected persons/households for social and environmental safeguards as well as IPP. 8. The activities planned for next reporting period will be dealing with and following up the environmental issues occurring during current civil works implementations and to cope with IPP target indicators set in Project/Program’s outputs/sub outputs. The Project is acceptable and will create positive social impacts to women, indigenous people and the poor by increasing their access to education, thus improving their quality of life.

9. The delays in civil works implementation is lesser implementation of social and environmental aspects this is due to all involved primary stakeholders- (EA, IA, contractors and consultants) have been tried to deal with the civil works to push through in according with proposed schedule. The commencement of civil works for building constructions are pilings which are taken longer times to complete them and the contractors used diesel hummer machines/driven machine and few machines’ operators.

Report prepared by: Site engineers and safeguards consultant

2.3. Safeguard Plans Implementation Arrangements 19. As involuntary resettlement is categorized C, and environment is categorized B, the EMP and Environmental Monitoring Checklists are crucial to implement during civil works of building constructions. The awarded contractors or subcontractors have to provide site engineers to supervise the construction site, daily managing and ensure proper and timely implementation of EMP and Environmental Monitoring Checklists. The TVETSDP engineer consultant team is overseeing on the safeguards implementation of contractors/sub-contractors and reporting to PCU/Directorate General of Technical Vocational Education and Training (DGTVET), the corrective action has to be made immediately if found any. There is no external monitoring agency. 20. The DGTVET as implementing agency of Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training (MLVT) is tasked assigning safeguards officer to direct manage and be responsible for (i) inclusion of EMP in bidding documents and other applicable contracts; (ii) implementation of EMP and EMoP during the constructions, operations and maintenance activities in the public TVET institutions; (iii) review and monitoring of the Occupational Health and Safety Plan (OHSP) and

14

Community Health and Safety Plan (CHSP); and (iv)submission of semi-annual monitoring reports to ADB. The following table is delineated the agencies and their responsibilities:

o Permits or agreement for obtaining the campsite installation and construction waste disposal within institutions’ campus:

24. The awarded contractors usually have informed the public TVET institutions’ director/management in order to introduce about her/his firm to undertake the construction of dorms, new classroom and workshop buildings in the institutions, includes showing the master plan of institution and showing the detailed designs of the buildings, the contractors have requested the institution directors/management to obtain the permission to install the campsite within the institution, rubbish bins have been provided by contractors/firms to dispose the solid waste from kitchen and the construction waste (usually less, just only cement bags and some plastic materials). Most institutions used the system of dumping and burning solid waste within their institutions; few institutions used the system of solid waste collection by municipality/private companies.

The construction of buildings could not generate much of solid waste; the buildings are small, normally it is concrete and masonry works within enclosure of building site or nylon net fencing.

o Management of construction sites: 25. After getting the permission from institutions’ director/management for installation of campsite, the contractor starts installation the common camps and warehouses, making from timbers, woods, planks, bamboo and covering by tarpaulin or similar materials, this is just temporary shelter for construction workers in short period of times. At the same time, if the public TVET institutions did not have the toilet (water and sanitation) immediately the contractor is building the toilet to ensure their construction workers are comfortable. And other sites used the existing toilet within the institutions (requested permission from directors).

16

26. Due to this is just small buildings constructions, the heavy equipment or plants did not use, they used only common vibrators, cement mixtures, while storage for fuel, oil and construction materials are negligible, including the trucks for transportation of construction materials. Workshop building could not generate much of water pollution, it is negligible, and due to sewerage system is connected to municipality sewerage system and in NPIA the construction of dorm building and its campsite did not connect to municipality electricity grid, the awarded contractor used old generator therefore some leakages of used oils and other lubricants are in at campsite, the correction action has taken by instructing to site engineer and site manager to deal with this issue immediately to put in proper place in according with ADB environmental safeguards officers’ recommendations during field mission on 27 June 2017. 27. The contractor is implementing of works at the established time (e.g. work during daytime 06.00 to 18.00, lunch time from 11:30 to 14:00). Installation of necessary construction signs in construction sites includes nylon net fencing surround buildings constructions to prevent children and/or animal enters into the site camp.

o Community and Security

28. The contractor/workers need to be aware of and all sites have been applied the following general rules: (i) No alcohol/drugs on-site; (ii) Prevent excessive noise; (iii) No illegal activities such as, but not limited to gambling, and hunting farm animals in the

area; (iv) Trespassing on private/commercial properties adjoining the site is forbidden; (v) No littering in the public TVET institutions; and (vi) Workers are not allowed to be loitering in the TVET institutions especially when there

are trainings or classes in adjacent buildings.

o Ready construction site:

- Restoration of the area of construction sites and camps when the building construction works are completed.

- Replanting/planting of finished work areas (cut one tree replanting two trees if any). - The completion of nine workshop buildings in nine public TVET institutions of Banteay

Meanchey, BIT/Battambang, Kampong Cham Polytechnic Institute, Kampong Speu, Kampong Thom, Kandal, Pursat Polytechnic Institute, NPIA and Sihanouk/PIPP under TVETSDP end of November 2017 had cleaned to pre-project status and there is no cut of tree because the location for implantation of workshop buildings are in the vacant land of public TVET institutions’ master plan.

3.3. Environment Effect Monitoring

30. Monitoring plan: Environments, Occupational Health and Safety, and Personal Hygiene need to refresher orientation to new coming workers and staff of awarded contractors and their site engineers, reminding them to regular implementation of EMP, this is compulsory to do so. The awarded contractors have participated in safeguards orientation on 23 January 2018 after signing the contract on 27 December 2017 for three dormitories and workshop buildings in four public TVET institutions receiving civil works. During this semi-annual environmental monitoring report, the safeguards specialist together with involved staff from TVETSDP project has conducted capacity building/orientation at sites to workers and staff working in current civil work implementation of public TVET institutions including BIT on 9 May 2018, NPIA on 11 May 2018, in Koh Kong PTC on 11 July 2018. Workers usually do not want to use Occupational Health and Safety such as safety hard hats/helmets, safety shoe, safety gloves and ear mufflers, and this project has to introduce and be compulsory to worker’s adaptations of using safety helmets/hard hats, safety shoe, safety gloves and ear mufflers. 31. Monitoring activities in the reporting period: The monitoring activities have been conducted depends upon civil works implementations of building constructions in public TVET institutions. During this semi-annual report, the monitoring activities have conducted to all civil work implementations in public TVET institutions, receiving building constructions, including BIT/Battambang, Banteay Mean Chey PTC/no civil works during field visits, NPIA/Siem Reap and Koh Kong PTC. The orientation/training about Environments, Occupational Health and Safety, and Personal Hygiene to skilled and unskilled workers as well as site engineers have been done with total 6 engineers (all males) and 70 workers (26 females) on 9 May 2018 in BIT on 11 May 2018 in NPIA, and on 11 July 2018 in Koh Kong PTC. Transect walking to construction sites and assessment of safeguard issues that may occur deviating from the implementation of EMP and the corrective action has been made with log sheet records to instruct the site engineers to take action immediately after visiting and finding of safeguard issues to sites.

32. Assessment. The monitoring results indicated that there is a bit improving to previous results of monitoring, although government also has standards of environment of building constructions. The delay in civil works constructions and the lower costs of awarded contractors as well as the variations of bill of quantity would result in environment/EMP implementations because the concern is how to push and proceeding the civil work goes ahead.

IV. INVOLUNTARY RESETTLEMENT PERFORMANCE MONITORING

33. The resettlement categorization for this Project is C, there is no resettlement plan. The project is not involved in land acquisition or involuntary resettlement as confirmed by the due diligence reports, prepared during June-July 2018. The premises of all public TVET institutions are enclosed by fencing and have titles and/or certificates from Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning and Construction and local authorities that deem them as state-owned land, designating for buildings and development within their campuses. There are no informal or squatter settlements inside these campuses. There are no non-titled residents or vendors on the properties. The Project will not restrict land use and/or access to legally designated parks and protected areas for the reasons described above. Thorough assessment also indicated that, there is no indigenous people are residing within public TVET institutions’ campuses and its surroundings.

V. INDIGENOUS PEOPLE PERFORMANCE MONITORING

34. ADB classifies Indigenous People (IP) as category B, in terms of benefiting from the Project/Program, this document was uploading onto the ADB website since October 2015, it is not affected entities by implementing the civil work of building construction. The consultant team and especially the Executing Agency (EA) and implementing agency (IA) are fully aware of the IP implementation within out puts/sub-out puts and have to be addressed them, when identified. Every output and sub-output of TVETSDP is qualified with IP targets and/or requirements. Mechanisms to increase IP enrolment in public TVET institutions have been identified by the working group of

24

DGTVET. The outputs and sub-outputs of IPP is paralleled with general Program/project of TVETSDP with particular expertise’s responsibilities. 35. The Executive Agency, Implementing Agency together with consultant team will conduct the more field visits to verify the often stated perception that IP targets are very difficult because of their cultures, traditions, languages and isolation. The social marketing campaign will give special attention to ‘capture’ IP students to study in the various TVET programs including SBP, VSTP, VC, CQF levels. Similarly, the internship program, SSC, COE, CQF level 2 and above courses and so forth have been paid attention to access and benefiting by IPs in the PTCs and RTCs. The following table delineated the progress of IPPs’ target indicators achieved:

37. The capacity building or on-job training to involved officers of TVETSDP on site engineers, totally 6 engineers (all males) and 70 workers (26 females) on 9 May 2018 in BIT, on 11 May 2018 in NPIA, and on 11 July 2018 in Koh Kong PTC (please review in annex-4 the fields reports and lists of participants). The contents of the trainings are about Social Safeguard and Environmental Monitoring Checklist, Environments Safeguards, Occupational Health and Safety, and Personal Hygiene, the staff and workers understand about social and environmental safeguards, Occupational Health and Safety, and Personal Hygiene. The staff requested to have refresher training to their new site engineer’s recruitment for woman’s dormitories in NVIB, Kandal and Kratie PTCs and the recruitment of new comer’s engineers are on the process, do not know how long will take, therefore, the safeguards training should be scheduled to those new comers or scheduling for every six months’ periods.

36

VIII. GRIEVANCE REDRESS MECHANISM

38. A grievance redress mechanism has been established in community level, mainly in the public TVET institutions that have been introduced for civil works of building constructions, for instance, BIT/ Battambang, Banteay Mean Chey PTC, NPIA, and Koh Kong PTC had established during September and October 2016 due to they had implemented for civil works of workshop buildings, since then, the safeguards specialist and TVETSDP involved staff have regularly conducted the field visits and reminding/maintaining the mechanism for further and coming building constructions such as new classroom buildings, woman’s dormitories, and COE buildings during October 2017 and May/June 2018. The members of grievance redress mechanism consisted of directors/directress, deputy directors/directress and involved staff, augmenting site engineers and contractors to facilitate and corresponding the complaints from affected person (APs) during the construction phase.

39. The notice boards in public TVET institutions displaced the information in connection with complaints and its procedures, If APs do not have the writing skills or being able to express their grievances verbally, however, APs are encouraged to seek assistance from the nominated local NGOs or other family members. So far, there is no complaint yet regarding social, environmental safeguards and the IPP. The building construction implementations within public TVET institution’s premises and the building constructions are fencing enclosure, they are away from residents and animals, they did not damage and invade social infrastructures, social facilities, and environment at all.

IX. CONCLUSION

40. There is no major issue for the buildings constructions within public TVET institutions during this semi-annual safeguards monitoring report:

o The contractors managed the environmental safeguards issues, however it needs to

further improvement and regular monitoring and oversight by site engineer consultants (employed by EA/DGTVET).

o The negative environmental impact during construction phase is short term and minor. The significant impacts included dust control from civil works implementation, materials transportation, human waste, and solid waste generation from construction campsite, work safety and health, pollution from fuels and used engine oil, for instance, the leakage from old generator in NPIA and this impact is immediately correcting by site engineers, and contractor at site.

o Environmental Management System has been established for the Subprojects and for

each Contract Package. The Contractors and site engineers have cooperated in environmental management plan and monthly environmental monitoring checklist.

o Specific activities to minimize environmental impacts during construction have been done

by the Contractors and overseeing by site engineers.

o The monitoring results showed that the impacts of construction activities to the ambient air, noise, vibration and water are negligible.
