Articles 6 and 7 of the Convention. Employment policy. The Committee previously noted with interest the adoption of legislation providing for the compulsory electronic notification by employers of all information on the commencement, modification, extension or termination of any employed or self-employed labour relationship. The Committee notes the Government’s indication in its report that all information that employers are required to notify is publicly available.

Articles 2, 4 and 9. Organization and effective operation of the public employment service system following its reform, including the delegation of employment services to employers’ and workers’ organizations. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that the reform of public employment services includes: (i) the decentralization of employment services to the regional and local authorities; and (ii) the authorization to provide employment services through a variety of institutions (such as secondary schools, universities, and non-profit associations) and the most representative employers’ and workers’ organizations. The Committee further notes the Government’s indication that the Ministry of Labour and Social Policy plays a major role in the guidance and coordination of employment services to ensure that comparable services are offered throughout the country. The Committee requests the Government to provide more information on the organization and functioning of the employment services provided by employers’ and workers’ organizations.

Article 10. Effective performance of the staff of the labour administration system. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that, within the various labour market reforms and the reform of the administrative system, particular emphasis has been placed on the capacity building and training of public employees. In this context, it notes that the social partners have been involved in the establishment of the annual training plans for 2014 and 2015. The Committee also notes the Government’s indication that the financial resources of the labour administration services have been reduced as a result of the ongoing economic and financial crisis and the Government’s obligation to adopt strict budgetary policies to ensure the stability of public financing. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the number and conditions of service of the staff of the labour administration system. It further requests the Government to provide information on any steps taken to mitigate any adverse consequences of the reduction of the financial resources on the effective performance of the duties of the staff of the labour administration system.
