Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1994, publiée 81ème session CIT (1994)

1. The Committee notes a very brief report provided by the Government on the application of the Convention.

2. The Committee also notes the observations made in June 1993 by the Congress of Argentinian Workers (CTA) on the application of the Convention. The CTA alleges that some recent legislative measures adopted by the Government with a view to introduce more flexible forms of employment, and in particular the National Employment Law No. 24.013 of 1991, or concerning employment agencies as well as privatization of public enterprises, are not in conformity with the Convention. The Committee observes in this connection that the Convention provides for the obligation of the ratifying States to take "measures ... to combat unemployment". It would be grateful if, in its next report, the Government would supply more detailed information, including reports on measures taken or contemplated to combat unemployment, as required by Article 1 of the Convention.

3. As regards the activities of so-called "temporary employment enterprises" referred to in the observations of the above-mentioned organization, the Committee refers to its comments under Convention No. 34.
