Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 2010, Publicación: 100ª reunión CIT (2011)

Convenio sobre la administración del trabajo, 1978 (núm. 150) - Italia (Ratificación : 1985)

The Committee notes the Government’s report received by the ILO in August 2009.

Articles 6 and 7 of the Convention. Review of national labour policy and extension of the functions of the labour administration system to workers who are not employed persons. The Committee notes with interest that, according to the Government’s report, since March 2008, every employer is under the obligation to communicate by electronic means all information relating to the commencement, modification, extension or termination of any employed or self-employed labour relationship, including in the case of contracts for continued and coordinated collaboration, training courses, where the worker is a member of a cooperative, or where the employer is a temporary employment agency (Inter-ministerial Decree of 30 October 2007 respecting compulsory electronic notifications to the competent services by public and private employers and Legislative Decree No. 185/2008 adopting urgent measures of assistance to families, labour, employment and enterprises with a view to redefining the national strategic framework in light of the need to address the crisis, which was converted into law by Act No. 2 of 28 January 2009).

In a comment made on 18 September 2009 concerning the application of the Labour Statistics Convention, 1985 (No. 160), the Italian General Confederation of Labour (CGIL) welcomes the entry into force in March 2008 of this information system. Designed as a compulsory system, in addition to the advantage of providing a more precise knowledge of labour market trends, it also, in contrast with the purely statistical data of the National Institute, provides a picture of the real situation, which is particularly valuable in times of crisis. Noting the viewpoint of the CGIL that such data should be published and observing that this issue is closely related to Article 6(2)(b) and (c), and Article 7 of the Convention, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide the Office with any relevant comments in this respect.

The Committee would be grateful if the Government would also provide information on the impact of the new legislation on labour market trends in the specific context of the global economic crisis.
