Repetition
Articles 2–4 of the Convention. Granting paid educational leave to all workers. The Committee notes the Government’s report received in October 2013 in which it indicates that even though the terms of reference of the Labour Advisory Board include the drafting of a national labour policy, so far the Board has not been able to carry out this task because is still in the process of reviewing all labour and trade union related legislation.The Committee invites the Government to provide information on the formulation and application of a policy to promote the granting of paid educational leave. Please also indicate how this policy is coordinated with general policies on employment, education and training, and hours of work.
Part V of the report form. Practical application. The Committee notes the statistical information submitted by the Government in its report and observes that a total of 620 public officers have been granted paid educational leave in various areas over the years 2009–12. It also notes that some private employers grant paid educational leave and that it is typically based on length of service of the employee and on whether the area of study is or not related to the business interests of the employer.The Committee invites the Government to continue to include documentation such as reports, studies and statistics allowing it to assess the extent to which the Convention is applied in practice.
