Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2000, published 89th ILC session (2001)

Paid Educational Leave Convention, 1974 (No. 140) - Sweden (Ratification: 1975)

The Committee notes the Government’s report which indicates that there has been no change in the provisions on paid educational leave during the period in question. It also notes the indication that the study on the legislation applicable to various forms of leave has been transmitted to the competent authorities and the social partners for comment. It requests the Government to indicate, if appropriate in its next report, any follow-up that will be given to this consultation.

Furthermore, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would supply, as in the past, indications on the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice, supplying, for example, any extracts of relevant studies, surveys or reports, as well as the available statistics on the number of workers benefiting from paid educational leave, as requested in Part V of the report form.
