Observation (CEACR) - adopted 1991, published 78th ILC session (1991)

Employment Service Convention, 1948 (No. 88) - Sierra Leone (Ratification: 1961)

The Committee notes with regret that the Government's report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation which read as follows:

The Committee noted from the reply of the Government to its earlier comments that the draft Employment Service Regulations to which the Government had been referring for a number of years was still under consideration. The Committee trusts that the new provisions will be adopted very shortly and that the next report will contain the information previously requested on: (a) the setting up of national, and where necessary regional and local, advisory committees ensuring the participation of employers' and workers' representatives in equal numbers in the organisation and operation of the employment service and in the development of the general policy of this service, in accordance with Articles 4 and 5 of the Convention; and (b) the determination of the functions of the employment service in accordance with Article 6 of the Convention.

TEXT

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the very near future.
