Formulation and application of a policy designed to promote the granting of paid educational leave. The Committee notes the Government’s report received in August 2010, which includes some information on the functions of paid educational leave. The Government indicates that paid educational leave policies are developed by the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection, while questions of vocational training as a whole fall under the responsibility of the Ministry of Education. The Government also indicates that, in the framework of pilot programmes conducted by the Azerbaijan Trade Union Confederation aimed at establishing trade union organizations in small and medium-sized enterprises, pamphlets were produced describing the basic rights of workers, and included information on the right to paid educational leave. The Government indicates that this is one example of trade unions playing an active role in ensuring workers’ rights in relation to paid educational leave, and collaborating with the government departments in the development of these policies. The Committee invites the Government to provide in its next report an assessment of the effectiveness of its policy to promote the granting of paid educational leave (Articles 2, 3 and 10 of the Convention) and to provide information on the measures taken to coordinate the policy on paid educational leave with general policies on employment, education and training, and hours of work (Article 4). The Committee also invites the Government to continue to provide in its next report information on how social dialogue is used in the formulation and application of the policy for the promotion of paid educational leave (Article 6). Please also provide general information on the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice, including extracts from reports, studies and inquiries, and available statistics on the number of workers granted paid educational leave (Part V of the report form).
