The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that the next report will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous comments.

Repetition

Article 5 of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that social dialogue, which had ceased in Yemen due to the political crisis and ongoing conflict, has now resumed. The Government adds that, in April 2018, the tripartite constituents participated in the 45th session of the Arab Labour Conference in Cairo, Egypt, after a hiatus of more than two years due to the war and ensuing disruption to tripartite dialogue. The Government indicates that, as part of its efforts to reactivate tripartite dialogue, it is planning to convene a tripartite meeting on labour-related issues and challenges facing the labour market due to the conflict. In this respect, the Committee recalls that, while it welcomes the reactivation of tripartite dialogue on labour issues at the national level, and effective tripartite consultation in relation to international labour standards supports tripartite cooperation in the country, the Convention expressly requires effective tripartite consultations with regard to the matters relating to international labour standards set out in Article 5(1)(a)–(e) of the Convention. The Committee further notes the Government’s request for ILO technical assistance in developing training programmes to promote tripartite dialogue in Yemen.The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the status of the draft legislation and to provide a copy once it is adopted. The Committee hopes that, despite the current situation, the Government will continue to take steps to encourage tripartite dialogue and to ensure effective tripartite consultations at regular intervals on the matters related to international labour standards as required under Article 5 of the Convention. The Committee encourages the Government to avail itself of the technical assistance of the Office in this regard.
