Regulation of fee-charging employment agencies. The Committee notes the Government’s report received in November 2013 in which it indicates that Decree No. 489/2001 issuing regulations under Part III of the Convention has not been given effect in practice. The Government adds that its application has not been requested by the parties concerned. The Committee notes the comments of the Confederation of Labour (CGT RA), transmitted to the Government in September 2013, in which the trade union states that, despite the provisions of Decree No. 489/2001, there are innumerable cases that are not in compliance in practice. The inspection services and the judicial response appear to be incapable of preventing or remedying the situation effectively. Nor are there official statistics on the supervision carried out. The Committee once again asks the Government to provide information on the measures taken to monitor the operations of the agencies covered by Decree No. 489/2001. The Committee requests the Government to include relevant information in its report on the number and nature of the violations reported by the labour inspection services (Article 14 of the Convention and Parts IV and V of the report form).

[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2014.]
