The Committee notes the report provided by the Government for the period from July 2010 to May 2012 and the observations submitted by the Federation of Korean Trade Unions (FKTU) in September 2012. It also notes the observations of the Korea Employers Federation (KEF), which were included in a position paper dated 8 August 2012. The Government reports that the International Labour Policy Council held meetings to discuss matters concerning the ratification of ILO Conventions. The Government further indicates that at a meeting held in December 2010, the Council approved a plan to pursue the ratification of the Unemployment Convention, 1919 (No. 2), the Forty-Hour Week Convention, 1935 (No. 47), the Weekly Rest (Commerce and Offices) Convention, 1957 (No. 106), and the Occupational Cancer Convention, 1974 (No. 139). The Committee notes with interest that Conventions Nos 2, 47 and 139 were ratified in November 2011, along with the Radiation Protection Convention, 1960 (No. 115). The KEF indicates that the Government has held written discussions four times within the past five years to gather opinions from workers’ and employers’ representatives of the International Labour Policy Council on matters concerning the ratification of ILO Conventions, and undertook consultations at least once a year to discuss matters pertaining to Article 5 of the Convention. The FKTU indicates that the Government has not fully implemented Article 5(2) of the Convention, that is, to convene meetings of the International Labour Policy Council at least once a year.
