Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2002, published 91st ILC session (2003)

The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It is therefore bound to repeat its 2001 observation, which read as follows:

The Government states in its very brief report for the Convention that it has not yet adopted an employment policy, but it intends to send information to the Office when it becomes available. The Committee emphasizes the fundamental importance of adopting an employment policy and programmes within the framework of a coordinated economic and social policy and in consultation with representatives of workers, employers and other groups affected, such as rural and informal sector workers. It urges the Government to adopt an employment policy and implement appropriate programmes as soon as possible and requests a detailed report on all of the points raised in the report form for the Convention.
