Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1995, published 82nd ILC session (1995)

Dock Work Convention, 1973 (No. 137) - Guyana (Ratification: 1983)

The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in reply to its earlier comments. It notes, in particular, the Government's statement to the effect that it has not been found necessary to reduce the strength of the Register of Dock Workers. The Government also indicates that there is a training committee for dock workers and that regular seminars and on-the-job training have been undertaken in conjunction with the trade unions. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would describe in more detail the activities of the above-mentioned training committee, as well as any other vocational training provisions which apply to dock workers, as requested by the report form under Article 6 of the Convention.
