Articles 2 and 6 of the Convention. Policy for the promotion of paid educational leave. Participation of the social partners. Application in practice. For over 30 years, the Committee has been requesting the Government to provide detailed information demonstrating that it has formulated and applied a policy promoting the granting of paid educational leave for the various training and education purposes set out in the Convention. Moreover, for more than 15 years, it has been requesting the Government to describe the manner in which the public authorities, employers’ and workers’ organizations and institutions providing education and training are associated with the formulation and application of the policy to promote paid educational leave. The Government indicates that, on 15 October 2019, within the framework of the Decent Work Country Programme (DWCP), 2016-2019, the National Employment Policy (PNE) was validated, with the support of the employers’ and workers’ organizations. The PNE includes a programme on workforce development, basic education and vocational training. The Government indicates that the PNE is still in the process of finalization and that it will keep the Committee informed of any new development in this regard. The Committee observes, however, that the Government provides no information on the formulation and application of a policy promoting the granting of paid educational leave. The Committee recalls that the Convention requires the Government to formulate and apply a policy designed to promote, by methods appropriate to national conditions and by stages as necessary, the granting of paid educational leave for the purpose of training at any level; general, social and civic education; trade union education (Article 2), in concertation with the social partners (Article 6).
Furthermore, the Committee notes that the Government refers once more to section 222.9 of the Labour Code, which provides that periods of educational leave shall be assimilated to time actually worked. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that a revision of the Labour Code is under way, conducted in collaboration with the organizations of the employers and workers, and that ILO technical assistance has been requested in this regard. The Committee notes with interest the adoption of Act L/2019/0027/AN of 7 June 2019, adopting and promulgating the Act issuing the general conditions of employment of State employees. With regard to public servants, the said Act provides that State employees shall have the right to educational leave which covers periods of absence from work for the purpose of training or upskilling. Public servants on educational leave are regarded as having active status. The time passed thereon is taken into account for grade advancement and counted in the years of service required to qualify for promotion to a higher grade or to sit a professional examination. All public servants shall have the right to improve and complete their occupational skills and competencies, either through training or through upskilling (sections 27, 146, 147 and 182 and following). The Committee also notes that the financing of vocational training is provided by the State and the public employer. Paid educational leave for various educational and training purposes is often allocated to workers who have received grants. Finally, the Committee observes that the Government does not provide information on the application of the Convention in practice. In this regard, the Government indicates that the National Observatory of Labour and Employment (ONTE) was put in place in 2022, with a view to answering to the need for consolidated, harmonized and reliable information at national level, in the areas of work, employment and training. The Committee once more expresses the hope that the Government will provide detailed information on progress achieved in the formulation and application of a policy designed to promote the granting of paid educational leave for the various purposes prescribed by the Convention. In particular, the Committee again requests the Government to indicate the manner in which the public authorities, employers’ and workers’ organizations and institutions providing education and training are associated with the formulation of the policy to promote paid educational leave for the purposes set out in Articles 2 and 3 of the Convention. The Committee also requests the Government to communicate all reports, studies, surveys or statistical data allowing an appreciation of the level of application of the Convention in practice.

The Committee notes with deep concern that the Government’s report has not been received. It expects that the next report will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous comments.

Articles 2 and 6 of Convention. Policy for the promotion of paid educational leave. Participation of the social partners. Application in practice. In reply to the Committee’s previous comments, which related to the existence of a policy to promote the granting of educational leave, the Government indicates that the country does not have a policy on this subject. However, the Government refers in its report to the legal provisions deeming a period of educational leave to be time actually worked (section 222.9 of Act No. L/2014/072/CNT of 10 January 2014 issuing the Labour Code and section 44 of Act No. L/2001/028/AN of 31 December 2001 issuing the general conditions of employment of public officials). The Government indicates that, as set out in the Labour Code, paid educational leave is granted following the allocation of a training grant at all levels of general, social, civic and trade union education. In this regard, the Committee notes that, in the case of workers’ educational leave, the contract of employment is suspended. Moreover, in the case of public officials, the Committee notes that the entitlement of public officials to remuneration and promotion may be suspended due to engagement in studies and research of general interest, and that the duration of the suspension cannot be less than one year or more than two years. The Committee trusts that the Government will provide detailed information demonstrating that it has formulated and is applying a policy designed to promote the granting of paid educational leave for the various training and education purposes set out in the Convention. It requests the Government to describe the manner in which the public authorities, employers’ and workers’ organizations and institutions providing education and training are associated with the formulation and application of the policy to promote paid educational leave. Finally, the Committee invites the Government to provide any reports, studies, inquiries and statistics indicating the level to which the Convention is applied in practice.

With regard to the provisions which are applicable to public servants, the Committee notes that the Government refers to the general conditions of service of the public service without specifying whether provisions have been adopted under these general conditions of service in order to organize paid educational leave.

The Committee notes the information concerning the financial assistance provided by the National Vocational Training Fund (FNQP). Please state how the FNQP contributes to financing arrangements for paid educational leave, in accordance with Article 7 of the Convention, and specify the sums allocated for this purpose.

With reference to the comments that it has been making for several years, the Committee trusts that the Government will supply in its next report detailed information demonstrating that it has formulated and is applying, in accordance with Article 2, a policy designed to promote the granting of paid educational leave, in association with employers' and workers' organizations and institutions or bodies providing education and training, in accordance with Article 6.

CMNT_TITLE

Further to its previous commments, the Committee notes the Government's reply that specific texts regulating vocational training and development will soon resolve the problems in application of the Convention. Apart from the provisions contained in the Labour Code respecting the vocational training of employees but not covering public officials, no measures have yet been adopted to give effect to the Convention.

The Committee hopes the Government will soon be in a position to show that it has formulated and is applying a policy designed to promote, by methods appropriate to national conditions, the granting of paid educational leave as outlined in the Convention. In the meanwhile, the Committee once again asks the Government to indicate the procedures through which the public authorities, employers' and workers' organisations and institutions providing education and training are associated in the formulation of the policy for the promotion of paid educational leave for the purpose set out in Articles 2 and 3 of the Convention. It hopes the next report will supply details.

In particular, the Committee requests the Government to indicate the procedures through which the public authorities, employers' and workers' organisations and institutions providing education and training are associated in the formulation of the policy for the promotion of paid educational leave for the purposes set out in Articles 2 and 3 of the Convention.
