Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2010, Publicación: 100ª reunión CIT (2011)

Articles 6–8 of the Convention and Part IV of the report form. Implementation of employment policies and programmes. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that following in the reform of local governance in 2007, the national employment policy is targeted based on a limited number of “forward-looking targets” in areas where focused action is required in order to improve the results of the employment programmes which are monitored and followed up through the four employment regions. It also notes that at the local level, employment programmes are based on an annual employment plan, which is implemented through the new Public Employment System and whose results are monitored through results audits. The four employment regions and four regional employment councils coordinate national and local policies and programmes. The Committee further notes various measures taken under the new bodies and structure.

The Committee requests the Government to continue to provide up-to-date information concerning the application of the Convention. It would also appreciate receiving more detailed information on the functioning and the results achieved of the new system, including the information concerning:

–           how effective consultation and cooperation between the public representatives of employers’ and workers’ organizations are ensured in the process of formulation and implementation of employment or labour policies at the national and local levels, such as the identification of the abovementioned “forward-looking targets”, in accordance with Article 6(2)(c) of the Convention;

–           whether consideration is being given, under the new system in place since 2007, to promote the extension of the functions of labour administration to workers enumerated in Article 7 of the Convention, and

–           how the bodies mentioned in the Government’s report, such as the four employment regions or the four regional employment councils may contribute to the preparation of national policy concerning international labour affairs, as provided in Article 8 of the Convention.

In connection to Part IV of the report form, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would also provide a copy of annual reports of, for instance, the National Employment Council, the National Labour Market Authority, the four employment regions and the four regional employment councils or any other national or local bodies involved in the formulation and implementation of labour policies or programmes
