Articles 1 and 2 of the Convention. Coordination of employment policy with poverty reduction. The Government indicates that there are several initiatives to improve the supply of vocational training, including the establishment in 2014 of the Ministry of Technical Education, Vocational Training, Employment and Labour (MET-FP-ET); the introduction of new competency-based programmes in eight pilot institutions; the introduction of new training courses feeding directly into employment in vocational training centres; the formalization of partnerships between the MET-FP-ET, international vocational training institutes, schools and the world of work. With regard to the programme training young persons in highly labour-intensive techniques implemented by the Guinean Agency for Work of Public Interest (AGETIP), the Government says that it has led to the creation of 1,340 direct jobs and 1,777 indirect jobs throughout the production chain. Lastly, in the context of the implementation of the National Fund for the Integration of Young Persons (FONIJ), 1,000 young persons were trained in 18 trades, 870 young persons qualified for employment or self-employment, and 1,200 families benefited from improved incomes for nine months. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the progress made in the formulation and implementation of a national employment promotion policy. It also requests the Government to continue providing information on the results achieved, particularly for young persons and women, by measures to promote employment and improve the supply of vocational and technical training, with reference in this regard to its comments on the Human Resources Development Convention, 1975 (No. 142).

Article 3. Participation of the social partners in the formulation and implementation of policies. The Committee draws the Government’s attention to the importance of consultations with representatives of the persons affected when formulating and implementing employment policy. The Committee requests the Government to provide detailed information on the consultation of the social partners in the process of the formulation and implementation of employment policies. Please provide information on the manner in which the representatives of rural workers and workers in the informal economy participate in the formulation and implementation of employment policy.
