Convenio sobre la política del empleo, 1964 (núm. 122) - Polinesia Francesa

Articles 1 and 2 of the Convention. Implementation of employment policy within the framework of a coordinated economic and social policy. The Committee notes the information contained in the Government’s report for the period ending in December 2011. The Government indicates that a service voucher scheme has been set up for individuals through territorial Act No. 2010-3 of 15 March 2010 with the objective of combating unofficial work and promoting the development of household services. As regards the points raised in the Committee’s previous direct request, the Government refers to the 2011 annual report of the Employment, Training and Vocational Integration Service (SEFI). The Committee notes that in 2011 the SEFI was used intensively by jobseekers. The total number of job vacancies was 26 per cent lower than in 2010. The average monthly total of jobseekers was almost 8,800 persons. The SEFI expects to support job creation and prevent long-term unemployment, maintain jobs in struggling enterprises, enable combined work/training schemes and promote assistance to workers with disabilities. The SEFI indicates that no positive developments have been recorded with regard to tackling illiteracy. The core group of jobseekers in Tahiti is having recourse to vocational training in the search for lasting employment. It is also noted that many jobseekers with experience are seeking to use vocational training as an opportunity and a means of relinquishing their status as unemployed persons. The Committee invites the Government to supply detailed information in its next report on the results achieved by the new mechanisms established to promote employment, provide new opportunities for marginalized persons and support the creation of sustainable enterprises. The Committee hopes that the report will also contain up-to-date information on employment trends and labour market measures.

Article 3. Participation of the social partners in the formulation and implementation of policies. The Committee notes the extract of the record of the meeting of 19 November 2007, sent by the Government in its report, concerning comprehensive tripartite consultations on labour and employment. The Committee invites the Government to provide recent specific examples of consultations held with the social partners on the subjects covered by the Convention, showing the opinions issued and the manner in which they have been taken into consideration.
