Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1998, published 87th ILC session (1999)

Paid Educational Leave Convention, 1974 (No. 140) - Guyana (Ratification: 1983)

The Committee refers to its previous direct requests and hopes that the Government's next report will provide the information already requested in respect of the number of public sector employees who are granted paid educational leave, as well as copies of the collective agreements which ensure the granting of paid educational leave in the private sector. In this respect, the Committee recalls that, to be able to evaluate the effect given to the Convention, it is essential that the Committee has, on the one hand, the relevant texts and, on the other, information in respect of their application in practice, as is requested in Part V of the report form approved by the Governing Body.
