Active labour market measures. In a report received in October 2010, the Government indicates that the Central Bureau of Statistics conducted a labour force survey (LFS) in June 2009. It determined that the employed population in Sint Maarten increased by more than 650 persons in June 2009, as compared to March 2007. This increase of just over 3 per cent is attributed to the increased number of employed women. The number of unemployed persons increased 21 per cent during the same period, as the unemployment rate increased from 10.6 per cent in March 2007 to 12.2 per cent in June 2009. The Committee notes that the youth unemployment rate increased to 29.4 per cent in 2009, as compared to 26 per cent in 2007. The Committee invites the Government to include information in its next report on the measures taken to ensure an active employment policy as required by Articles 1 and 2 of the Convention. It would also welcome specific information on measures adopted to create productive employment opportunities for young persons, and on the consultations held with the representatives of employers’ and workers’ organizations, including details of their contribution to the design and implementation of an active employment policy (Article 3 of the Convention).
