The Committee notes that the Government’s report for the period ending July 2003 refers only to the Republic of Serbia. Furthermore, the general information it contains does not allow the Committee to assess the effect given to the provisions of the Convention. The Committee would therefore be grateful if the Government could submit a detailed report covering the whole of the country, containing full information in response to each of the questions on the report form approved by the Governing Body. In addition to detailed information on the application of the Convention in the Republic of Montenegro, the Committee hopes that the Government’s next report will also contain information on the following aspects of the application of the Convention in the Republic of Serbia.

Republic of Serbia

1. Methods of granting paid educational leave. The Committee notes that Act No. 70 of 2001 on labour does not include any provision for the granting of paid educational leave. It requests that the Government indicate whether legislative or regulatory measures have been taken or are envisaged to make provision for the granting of paid educational leave to workers in the private sector. The Committee notes that the Government refers to clauses of collective agreements. Please submit the text of the general collective agreement, together with any relevant extracts of collective agreements providing for the granting of paid educational leave. Please submit the text of the Act on employment in state institutions (Article 5 of the Convention).

2. Policy for the promotion of paid educational leave. Please indicate how the policy to promote the granting of paid educational leave for the purposes specified in the Convention has been formulated (Articles 2 and 3). Please indicate how this policy is coordinated with general policies on employment, education and training, and hours of work (Article 4). Please describe the manner in which employers’ and workers’ organizations are associated with the formulation and application of the policy for the promotion of paid educational leave (Article 6).

3. Practical application. Please submit any extracts of reports, studies or inquiries relating to the practical application of the Convention, and any available statistics on the number of workers granted paid educational leave (Part V of the report form).
