Article 1(1) of the Convention. Establishment and implementation of a system of unemployment protection. The Committee recalls that for many years (and most recently in 2007) it has been drawing the Government’s attention to the need to establish a system of protection against involuntary unemployment.
In this respect, the Government indicates that, following a study on the establishment of an unemployment insurance fund, two preliminary draft texts have been prepared and would provide the basis for the payment of an unemployment allowance for six months, financed equally from employers’ contributions, contributions based on wages and the financial contribution of French Polynesia. The two preliminary draft texts have been sent to the social partners and the one that is selected will be the subject of a tripartite discussion before being submitted to the Economic, Social and Culture Council for its opinion and to the Assembly for a vote. The Government is awaiting the response of the social partners, who need to agree on the establishment of such a scheme.
The Committee notes these developments and hopes that, in its next report, the Government will be in a position to indicate progress made towards bringing national legislation into conformity with the Convention. Please provide a copy of any relevant text that is adopted in this regard.
