Articles 1(1), 2(1) and 25 of the Convention. Trafficking in persons. In its previous comments, the Committee noted the adoption of Order No. 244 of 20/7/1430H (2009) prohibiting trafficking in persons, and requested the Government to provide information on the application of this legislation in practice. Noting that the Government’s report contains no information regarding this issue, the Committee requests the Government to provide in its next report information on the application of this legislation in practice, including information about all cases in which perpetrators have been prosecuted, convicted and sentenced. Please also provide information on the various measures taken to combat trafficking, including measures of prevention and victim protection, as well as information on the work of any special bodies established to coordinate the implementation of such measures.
Articles 1(1) and 2(1). Freedom of workers to terminate employment. In its previous comments, the Committee requested the Government to provide information about the application in practice of section 48 of the Labour Code, which regulates the termination of training or qualification contracts, and under which an employer may require a trainee to work for him or her upon completion of the training period for a period not to exceed twice the duration of that period or one year, whichever is longer.
The Committee notes the Government’s statement in its report that labour courts have not examined any appeal regarding this question and if such cases are reported, the Government will provide the required information. Therefore, the Committee hopes that the Government will be able to provide information on any court decision issued on this matter. It also requests information about the number of cases of trainees being required to work after completion of their training period and the actual duration of the periods of post-training work in such cases, in order to ascertain the application of section 48 of the Labour Code in practice.
