Repetition

Articles 1, 6 and 9 of the Convention. Organization and operation of the labour administration system. The Committee notes the provision by the Government of organizational charts of the General Secretariat of Employment, the General Secretariat for Social Welfare and the General Labour Inspectorate. It understands that these organizational charts concern only the organization of essential labour administration services. The Committee also notes Decree No. 12/003 of 19 January 2012, issuing the statutes of a public body named the National Employment Office (ONEM). The Committee requests the Government to provide a copy of any texts issued under section 185 of the Labour Code and section 2(3) of the Decree, to describe the organization of the labour administration at central levels and at provincial and local service levels, in light of the functions entrusted to them under section 185 of the Labour Code, and to provide, where possible, a copy of the organizational chart of the labour administration system, including the provincial and local services, as set out in section 186 of the Labour Code. The Committee would also be grateful if the Government would clarify the manner in which the Ministry of Employment, Labour and Social Security ensures that regional and local labour administration bodies act in conformity with national legislation and fulfil the objectives set for them.

Article 5. Consultation, cooperation and negotiation between the public authorities and employers’ and workers’ organizations. While taking into account Ministerial Order No. 12/CAB.MIN/TPS/118/2005 of 26 October 2005 on the operation of the National Labour Council, the Committee requests the Government to specify the number of members of this body and to provide a copy of any reports or documents demonstrating the recent work of the Council. The Committee would also be grateful if the Government would indicate whether measures have been taken at the regional and local levels and in various sectors, to ensure consultation, cooperation and negotiation between the public authorities and employers’ and workers’ organizations.

Application in practice. The Committee requests the Government to provide a copy of the activity report of the Ministry of Employment, Labour and Social Security, as well as extracts of reports or periodic information provided by the principal labour administration services.
