The Committee notes the observations of the Federation of Chambers and Associations of Commerce and Production of Venezuela (FEDECAMARAS) and of the International Organisation of Employers (IOE), which were received on 2 September 2015.
Article 1 of the Convention. Contribution of the employment service to employment promotion. Application of the Convention in practice. The Committee notes the Government’s indication in its report that it has been implementing a set of policies aimed at ensuring people’s integration in employment and education. Employment agencies have been replaced by “meeting centres for education and work” (CEETs), of which there are 31 across the country. The Committee notes that in 2013, a total of 39,351 jobseekers were registered at the CEETs, 5,752 job vacancies were notified and 2,720 persons were placed in employment. The Government also referred to the Act concerning the Knowledge and Labour Mission, promulgated in June 2012, whereby the “system for the registration of employment needs and vacancies” was established, with a view to forecasting and identifying the number and characteristics of unemployed citizens, and ensuring their readiness for training and integration in the promoted programmes. The Second Socialist Economic and Social Development Plan 2013–19, which was adopted in December 2013, contains the general objective of promoting a policy for the integration of young people into the national productive system, with special emphasis on young people from low-income sectors. FEDECAMARAS and the IOE indicate that the CEETs are not fully operational. The Committee requests the Government to provide detailed information on the number of applications for employment received, the number of vacancies notified and the number of persons placed in employment by the CEETs. Please also provide information on the impact of measures adopted by the CEETs to meet the needs of young persons with regard to employment and vocational guidance.
Articles 4 and 5. Cooperation of the social partners. In its previous comments, the Committee asked the Government to provide information on the establishment of advisory committees at the national, regional and local levels with a view to achieving the cooperation of representatives of the employers and workers in the organization and functioning of the employment service. The Committee notes the Government’s indication in its report that, through dialogue round tables with the employers’ sector, agreements had been reached for boosting productive employment, with the provision of financial and institutional support for projects to create enterprises for social, mixed and communal production. The Committee notes the indication by FEDECAMARAS and the IOE that the Government is failing to comply with Article 5 of the Convention, according to which the general policy of the employment service must be developed after consultation of representatives of employers and workers; in this case, no consultations have been held with FEDECAMARAS regarding the formulation and implementation of this policy. The Committee requests the Government to provide its comments on this matter. The Committee also requests the Government to provide specific examples of previous consultations held with the social partners with a view to securing their cooperation in the organization and functioning of the public employment service.
[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2017.]
