Convention (n° 88) sur le service de l'emploi, 1948 - France (Ratification: 1952)

Articles 4 and 5 of the Convention. Reform of the public employment service. Participation of the social partners. The Committee notes that the National Council for Employment, and Vocational Training and Guidance (CNEFOP), established by the Act of 5 March 2014 on vocational training, employment and social democracy, replaces the National Employment Council and the National Council for Lifelong Vocational Training. CNEFOP is a forum for the discussion, follow-up, coordination and evaluation of policies on employment, basic and ongoing vocational training and guidance, and lifelong guidance. Discussion within CNEFOP will, henceforth, be held prior to the conclusion of the target agreement between the State, the National Occupational Union for Employment in Industry and Commerce (UNEDIC) and Pôle Emploi, specifying the conditions in which Pôle Emploi cooperates at regional level with other stakeholders of the public employment service. The social partners and CNEFOP members, are thereby given the opportunity to express their views on the strategy of Pôle Emploi. The Government also refers in its report to the establishment of Regional Committees for Employment, and Vocational Training and Guidance (CREFOP), enabling the number of discussion spaces to be rationalized and their scope of competence to be broadened to deal with issues related to guidance. The Committee requests the Government to continue to provide information on the active cooperation of the employers’ and workers’ representatives in the organization and functioning of Pôle Emploi. It also requests the Government to provide statistics on the number of existing public employment offices, the applications for employment received, vacancies notified, and the placements administered by the various Pôle Emploi offices.
