Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1991, Publicación: 78ª reunión CIT (1991)

Convenio sobre el servicio del empleo, 1948 (núm. 88) - Dinamarca (Ratificación : 1972)

Article 1 of the Convention. The Committee takes note of the information supplied by the Government in its report. It notes, in particular, the amendment, in December 1989, of the Act on the public employment service and the unemployment insurance system, with a view to liberalise placement activities through the abolition of the approval scheme for private temporary employment agencies and placement activities. The Government indicates that the liberalisation of placement activities will contribute, in connection with the strengthening of the public employment service, to a more efficient solution of the tasks, and that private placement activities will be a supplement to the public employment service.

The Committee also notes from the Government's report that in connection with the amending act from December 1989 the Minister of Labour was authorised to introduce rules on user payment for some special services rendered to the employers by the public employment service in connection with their education/training and staff planning activities, whereas the ordinary services of the public employment service continue to be free. The Government indicates that provisions concerning this question will be laid down in the beginning of 1991.

The Committee has noted this information. It would be grateful if the Goverment would supply, in its next report, information on practical implementation of the above measures, as well as on any other measures aiming at the best possible organisation of the employment market, which shall be ensured by the public employment service in co-operation, where necessary, with other public or private bodies concerned, in accordance with Article 1 of the Convention. It asks the Government to supply the text of the amendment of the Act on the public employment service and unemployment insurance system, referred to in the report, as well as the text of the above-mentioned provisions concerning charging fees by the public employment service, when they are adopted.
