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

Convenio sobre el servicio del empleo, 1948 (núm. 88) - Finlandia (Ratificación : 1989)

Article 4 of the Convention. The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government in reply to its earlier comments, and in particular that concerning the composition of the Council for Labour Affairs, the Labour District Committee and local labour commissions, as well as the procedure for the appointment of employer and worker representatives on these bodies. It also notes the observations of the Central Organization of Finnish Trade Unions (SAK), the Confederation of Unions for Academic Professionals in Finland, the Confederation of Finnish Industry and Employers (TT) and the Employers' Confederation of Service Industries (LTK). According to the statement of the SAK, the labour commissions do not deal with employment service matters on a local level in practice, but merely decide on the right to unemployment benefits. In the opinion of the TT and the LTK, the appointment of labour commissions and labour districts committees has not been carried out in a satisfactory manner, and their proposals have not been duly taken into account. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would refer to these observations in its next report, making such comments as it considers appropriate, in connection with the application of this Article.
