The Committee notes the discussion in the Conference Committee on the Application of Standards in June 2004 and the Conference Committee’s request to the Government to provide information in its next report on the matters raised in the discussion, as well as on those matters raised by the Committee of Experts in its observation and direct request made in 2003. The Committee also notes the observations from the Japan National Hospital Workers Union (JNHWU/ZEN-IRO) dated 4 August 2003 and from the Japanese Trade Union Confederation (JTUC-RENGO) dated 31 August 2003, which have been forwarded to the Government. RENGO acknowledges that certain progress has been made with regard to the revision of the Child-Care and Nursing Care Leave Act but raises a number of issues that still need to be addressed. JNHWU/ZEN-IRO states that in the context of the establishment of the National Hospital Organization, where many wage-based workers had obtained regular status employment, some wage-based nurses were only offered part-time status due to their family responsibilities. The Committee will address these comments together with the Government’s response to these comments and to its 2003 observation and direct request.
