Unemployment Indemnity (Shipwreck) Convention, 1920 (No. 8) - Aruba

Article 2 of the Convention. Unemployment indemnity in case of shipwreck. In its previous report, the Government had indicated that there were neither seafarers nor ships registered in Aruba and that for that reason it planned to consult with employers’ and workers’ organizations on the possibility of formally terminating acceptance of the obligations of the Convention on behalf of Aruba. In its last report, the Government indicated that there have been no changes with respect to maritime shipping and that no progress has been made regarding the intention to denounce the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to keep the Office informed of any new developments that might have an impact on the application of the Convention and also on the outcome of the discussions within the tripartite committee on international labour affairs concerning the termination of the acceptance of the obligations of the Convention on behalf of Aruba.
