The Committee refers to its observation and asks the Government to include information on the following matters in its next report.

1. Article 1 of the Convention. In its report the Government cites the labour market analyses and short-term studies on the country’s occupational situation conducted by the Employment and Wages General Directorate of the Ministry of Labour. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide information on the situation, level and trends of employment, unemployment and underemployment as shown by the analyses of the Employment and Wages General Directorate, indicating the extent to which they affect particular categories of workers (women, older workers, workers with disabilities, rural workers and workers in the informal sector).

2. Article 2. Please state what measures have been taken to ensure that the analyses done by the Employment and Wages General Directorate have been taken into account in adopting other measures to promote economic development or to achieve the economic and social objectives established in the Poverty Reduction Strategy.

3. The Committee repeats once again its direct request of 1999 that the Government provide evaluations of the results achieved in job creation by some of the programmes mentioned in its report, such as those implemented by the Emergency Social Investment Fund, the Social Action Secretariat, the Institute for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises and the National Programme for Support to Small Producers.

4. In its report the Government indicates that the export processing zone programme has contributed to generating 20,861 direct jobs and 2,099 indirect jobs. The Committee requests that the Government continue to provide information on the contribution of export processing zones to the creation of decent and lasting employment for those working in them.
