The Committee notes with concern that the Government’s report has not been received. It expects that the next report will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous comments initially made in 2014. The Committee also notes that the Government has been requested to provide information to the Committee on the Application of Standards at the 106th Session of the International Labour Conference for failure to supply reports and information on the application of ratified Conventions.
Repetition
Articles 2–5 of the Convention. Granting of paid educational leave. The Government indicates that paid educational leave for public servants stems from the need to increase the general level of education within the public sector. It also indicates that, since most of the educational opportunities are not provided by the Government itself, public servants are afforded the necessary time off to attend study for exams, attend classes and take exams. The Committee invites the Government of Aruba to further describe how it promotes the right to paid educational leave both in the public and private sectors. It also invites the Government to provide further details on how the granting of paid educational leave contributes to the promotion of appropriate continuing education and training in the terms of the Convention, along the lines of the report form approved by the Governing Body of the ILO.
Article 6. Participation of the social partners. The Government indicates that the policies in effect have not been submitted to tripartite discussions. The Committee invites the Government to indicate the measures envisaged to promote the participation of the social partners in the formulation and application of the policy for the promotion of paid educational leave.
Article 11. Assimilation to a period of effective service. The Committee invites the Government to indicate the measures taken to assimilate the period of paid educational leave to a period of effective service for the purpose of establishing claims to social benefits and other rights deriving from the employment relation.
Application of the Convention in practice. The Government refers in its report to several annexes that were unfortunately not received at the ILO. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would make available the collective agreements, statistics, as well as the other documents mentioned in its report related to the practical application of the Convention (Part V of the report form).
