Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 2003, Publicación: 92ª reunión CIT (2004)

Convenio sobre el desarrollo de los recursos humanos, 1975 (núm. 142) - Argelia (Ratificación : 1984)

In a report received in November 2003, the Government briefly describes the action taken by the public authorities in the field of the development of human resources. It refers in this respect to the launching of a medium-term plan (2001-05) for the training and further training of educational personnel. It adds that, in the context of measures for specific categories, an average of 1,000 internships for persons with disabilities are provided every year in vocational training establishments. Furthermore, 931 recipients of benefits from the National Unemployment Insurance Fund were provided with training in 2002. The Committee requests the Government to refer to the observation that it is making this year on the application of Convention No. 122. It also refers to the comment it made in 2002 on the application of Convention No. 142, relating to the diverse and tragic situations experienced by young persons from underprivileged backgrounds, such as the failure of a proportion of children of school age to attend school, with some dropping out of school during the first and second basic education cycles. In view of the persistence of the particularly critical situation in terms of vocational training and employment, the Committee trusts that the Government will adopt and develop comprehensive and coordinated policies and programmes of vocational guidance and vocational training through the establishment, particularly by means of public employment services, of close links between vocational guidance and training and employment (Article 1, paragraph 1, of the Convention). It hopes that the Government will also indicate in its next report the manner in which the cooperation is secured of employers’ and workers’ organizations in the formulation and implementation of these policies and programmes (Article 5).

The Committee requests the Government to provide information in its next report on any measures adopted to improve the development of human resources, within the meaning of the Convention.
