Article 7 of the Convention. Particular categories of applicants for employment. The Committee takes note of the signing of the Thailand Decent Work Country Programme (DWCP) for 2019–21, which sets priorities and key country outcomes. One of the priorities identified is to promote an enabling environment for the growth of decent and productive employment. In relation with this objective, one of the country outcomes is “effective demand-based and gender responsive employment services and the improved and expanded promotion of technical/vocational skills for all genders, with a particular focus on the employability of youth and older persons”. The Committee requests the Government to provide updated information on the measures taken to promote a gender-responsive approach by the employment service. Furthermore, the Committee requests the Government to provide updated and detailed information on the measures taken for women, young persons and older people, within the framework of the vocational guidance services.
Application of the Convention in practice. The Committee welcomes the detailed statistics provided by the Government regarding the numbers of unemployed people and job placements, as well as the number of vacancies over the period 2015–22. The Committee requests the Government to continue to provide updated statistical information on the number of public employment offices established, the number of applications for employment received, the number of vacancies notified, and the number of persons placed in employment by such offices.
