Convenio sobre la política del empleo, 1964 (núm. 122) - Senegal (Ratificación : 1966)

The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its 2004 direct request, which read as follows:

1. The Committee notes the brief information provided by the Government in August 2004, which does not address the matters raised in its direct request of 2002. It again requests the Government to provide copies of reports, studies or inquiries, as well as detailed and disaggregated statistics, showing the attainment of the objectives set out in the programmes established as part of the strategic framework to combat poverty, and to indicate the manner in which an active policy to promote full, productive and freely chosen employment is pursued in this context. It hopes that the Government’s next report will contain detailed information on all measures demonstrating the effectiveness of an active employment policy in the context of a coordinated economic and social policy. In this respect, the Government is invited to refer to the questions raised under Article 1 of the Convention in the report form adopted by the Governing Body, with a view to providing particulars on the implementation of the above measures and supplying any evaluations of their effectiveness as well as available statistics.

2. The Committee hopes that the Government will provide information in its next report on the measures taken to compile statistical and other data on the distribution of the labour force, the nature and volume of unemployment and underemployment and the trends in these fields, and that it will be able to indicate the manner in which the information compiled on the labour market is taken into consideration in deciding on and keeping under review the measures to be adopted under the national employment policy, as required by Article 2.

3. Article 3. Please specify the manner in which the representatives of the persons affected are consulted with regard to employment policies and indicate the formal consultation procedures established for this purpose. The Committee hopes in particular that the Government will report on the work of the Committee on the Follow-up to the National Employment Policy (CSPE).
