Definition. Policy to promote the granting of paid educational leave. In reply to the comments that it has been making for many years, the Committee notes the detailed information on the Bolsa de Qualificação Profissional provided in a Government report received in November 2011. The Government indicates that, in accordance with the provisions adopted in November 1998 and August 2001, the Bolsa Qualificação consists of a benefit provided to workers who are temporarily unemployed in accordance with the provisions of collective agreements. The Committee observes that the Convention requires member States to formulate and apply a policy designed to promote, by methods appropriate to national conditions and practice, the granting of paid educational leave for the purpose of training, general, social and civic education, and trade union education. The Committee invites the Government to provide detailed replies in its next report on the matters raised in the report form, with an indication in each case of the conditions that have to be met by workers to benefit from paid educational leave, the duration of such leave and the level of the financial benefits provided (Articles 2, 3 and 10 of the Convention).

Coordination of the policy to promote the granting of paid educational leave with general policies. The Committee invites the Government to indicate in its next report the measures adopted for the coordination of the national policy on paid educational leave with general policies on employment, education and training, and hours of work (Article 4).
