Using the International Labour Organisation (ILO) decent work indicators, the paper develops a diagnostic tool to measure decent work in the province of Gauteng, South Africa. Through a quantitative survey instrument, supplemented with qualitative in-depth interviews, research was undertaken into working conditions amongst vulnerable workers in three sectors: the private security industry, agriculture, and the hospitality sector. In contrast with the standard ILO decent work index, which is an instrument designed to measure decent work for the country as whole, this research instrument focuses on individual workers at sector level. By using a diagnostic tool at sector level, key actors in the sector will be able to develop evidence-led strategies to overcome the decent work deficits. The diagnostic tool can be used to monitor the implementation and realisation of the goal of decent work.
