Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1994, Publicación: 81ª reunión CIT (1994)

Convenio sobre la política del empleo, 1964 (núm. 122) - Nueva Caledonia

1. The Committee notes the Government's report for the period ending June 1992. It notes that the Government refers, as it did in its previous report, to the data from the April 1989 census, as well as to statistics of the job applications registered during the period. The Committee hopes that the next report will contain detailed statistical information on the level and trends of employment, unemployment and underemployment, by sex and age, both for the territory as a whole and for the each of the three provinces.

2. The Committee notes the information concerning the measures to promote the integration of young persons in employment. It notes the particular importance of the "young trainees for development" programme and would be grateful if the Government would describe this programme, with an indication of the measures which have been taken to evaluate its results in terms of the lasting occupational integration of its participants.

3. The Committee requests the Government to continue supplying information which is as detailed as possible on the measures taken to combat unemployment and would be grateful if it would supply additional information on overall and sectoral development policies and the manner in which they contribute to the promotion of employment "within the framework of a coordinated economic and social policy". In view of the persistence of broad disparities in the employment situation of the three provinces, the Committee once again requests the Government to indicate the measures which have been taken or are envisaged to promote harmonious regional development and to balance the supply and demand for labour at both the occupational and geographical levels.
