Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1995, publiée 83ème session CIT (1996)

The Committee notes the full and detailed information provided by the Government in its report for the period ending June 1994. It notes that, with an unemployment rate of 1.9 per cent and an underemployment rate of 1.7 per cent during the first quarter of 1994, the Government considers that the objectives of its policy of promoting full, productive and freely chosen employment are being achieved. The tensions on the labour market are a result of a mismatch between the supply and demand for skills, which the Government intends to remedy, particularly through the measures set out in the Employees' Retraining Ordinance, 1992. The Committee requests the Government to continue supplying information on the training policy pursued in coordination with employment prospects. Noting the information concerning migration provided in reply to its previous request, the Committee requests the Government to supply all available statistical data on this subject.
