Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1992, Publicación: 79ª reunión CIT (1992)

The Committee notes with regret that for the third year in succession the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

The Committee has noted the Government's brief report, which refers to the preceding reports of Netherlands Antilles. In those reports, the Government of Netherlands Antilles indicated that, following amongst other things the loss of many jobs in Aruba in the oil-refining sector, a series of proposals had been made (including compulsory education, fiscal measures, measures to facilitate the operation of the labour market, and the revision of the wage system) by a tripartite employment committee. The Committee would be glad if the Government would provide further details of its policy for full, productive and freely chosen employment in the terms of the Convention, along the lines of the report form approved by the Governing Body of the ILO, indicating whether these proposals have been followed up in Aruba.

Please indicate in particular how far the Government has envisaged and succeeded in the creation of jobs in the tourist industry, agriculture, fishing, manufacturing, construction, commerce and other sectors.

Please indicate finally any consultations of workers' and employers' representatives and other persons concerned which have been taking place in Aruba in relation to employment policy (Article 3 of the Convention).
