Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 1995, Publicación: 82ª reunión CIT (1995)

The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government in its report concerning the development of the national system of public employment offices and measures taken to meet the needs of particular categories of applicants for employment, such as disabled persons. As regards statistical information, the Government indicates that such information is in the process of being compiled and that the relevant statistical tables are under preparation. The Committee therefore hopes that the Government will not fail to provide, with its next report, the statistical information available concerning the number of public employment offices established, the number of applications for employment received, the number of vacancies notified, and the number of persons placed in employment by such offices, as requested by point IV of the report form.

Articles 4 and 5 of the Convention. The Government refers in its report to the establishment, under the auspices of the National Vocational Training Institute, of Liaison Committees which could allow the participation of representatives of employers, workers and public institutions in the definition and application of measures concerning vocational training and employment. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would describe in more detail the functions of these committees and their structure, indicating, in particular, whether representatives of employers and workers on these committees cooperate in the organization and operation of the employment service and in the development of employment service policy, and whether the representatives of employers and workers are appointed in equal numbers after consultation with representative organizations of employers and workers, as required by these Articles of the Convention. Please also indicate the number of such committees established nationally and, if applicable, regionally and locally.
