Articles 1, 2 and 3 of the Convention. Implementation of an active employment policy. The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in reply to its previous comments. The Government reports that the outcomes of the National Dialogue form the basis for its plan for 2018 and beyond. It adds that it has implemented a technical and vocational strategy in collaboration with the World Bank and other partners, but that it needs modern strategies and plans in the area of technical education. In this regard, the Government indicates that curricula are being developed, with the involvement of the social partners, to respond to the needs of the labour market. The Committee notes that the curricula place a focus on the development of English language skills, computer and information systems skills. The Government recalls that a national employment plan, in addition to the Decent Work Country Programme (DWCP), were implemented during 2008–10, in collaboration with the ILO, but that these are now outdated and need to be reviewed to take account of recent changes in Yemen and address major challenges that the country is facing. The Government indicates that the current circumstances in the country have prevented it from developing employment policies, noting that the ILO reduced its interventions in Yemen due to the conflict. It calls on the ILO to expand its interventions in the country, resume the DWCP and provide assistance in the development of national employment policies. Noting the difficult situation the country has been facing since 2011, the Committee hopes that the Government will soon be in a position to provide information on measures taken or envisaged to declare and implement an updated national employment policy. It also hopes that the Government will soon be in a position to report on the nature and extent of efforts being made to update technical vocational education and training curricula to ensure coordination between training and labour market needs, as well as on the results achieved in this regard. The Committee takes note of the Government’s request for technical assistance and hopes that the Office will provide the necessary support as soon as practicable.
