Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1995, Publicación: 83ª reunión CIT (1996)

The Committee notes that the Government's report contains no reply to its comments. It hopes that the next report will include full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

The Committee took note of the information supplied by the Government in reply to its previous direct requests and, in particular, the report on the application of the Convention drawn up by the People's Committee for Vocational Training. It notes the growth in the national labour force during the period under review and the increase in the participation rate of women. The Committee notes that general surveys are to be conducted in the near future on the situation and trends in employment, which will be used as a basis for planning and formulating employment policies. It hopes that these surveys will enable the Government in its next report to provide detailed statistical information on employment, both in the aggregate and in the various sectors of economic activity, as concerns particular categories of the population such as young people, women and immigrant workers. The Committee also asks the Government to state in what manner, on the basis of this information, an active employment promotion policy is formulated in consultation with the representatives of the persons concerned, in accordance with Articles 1, 2 and 3 of the Convention. Please also provide additional information on the following points.

1. The Committee notes with interest that special attention is being given to measures for training the workforce and that training plans have been adopted for more than 20 sectors. The report also refers to measures for on-the-job training, the enhancement of training opportunities for women and the establishment of vocational training centres for young people. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide additional information on the training measures and their impact on the employment of the persons concerned. Please indicate in particular the results of the training measures aimed at increasing the participation rate of women. Please state the manner in which education and training policies are coordinated with prospective employment opportunities, particularly for young people.

2. With reference to its previous direct request, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide information on developments in the application of the recommendations on raising production capacity and the redeployment of administrative staff in productive sectors.

3. More generally, the Committee asks the Government to complete the information on employment market policy measures with particulars of general and sectoral development policies that contribute to the promotion of full, productive and freely chosen employment.
