Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1999, published 88th ILC session (2000)

Fee-Charging Employment Agencies Convention (Revised), 1949 (No. 96) - Bolivia (Plurinational State of) (Ratification: 1954)

Part II of the Convention. The Committee notes that in reply to its 1992 request, the Government states that, owing to economic restrictions, it regrets it has not been possible to set up the supervisory and regulatory mechanism for fee-charging employment agencies required by the Convention.

The Committee notes, however, that strengthening of the employment service is included among the priorities of the labour administration modernization programme. In these circumstances, it hopes that the regulations applicable to the private employment agencies referred to in section 2 of Directive No. 006/86 of 14 January 1986 will shortly be adopted and applied and will take into account, in particular, the requirements of Article 5, paragraph 2, of the Convention.
