Convention (n° 88) sur le service de l'emploi, 1948 - République-Unie de Tanzanie.Tanganyika (Ratification: 1962)

The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in reply to its earlier comments. It notes, in particular, the information concerning the elaboration, with the technical assistance of the ILO, of the project document concerning the establishment of Employment Promotion Offices (EPOs), which would perform the role of the former employment exchanges. The Government informs of its intention to open such offices in three regions in the financial year 1992-93. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would keep it informed of the new developments in this sphere. It reiterates its hope that the Government will not fail to supply, in its next report, information on measures taken in this connection with a view to ensure full application of Article 6 (employment service's functions) and Article 7 (measures to facilitate within the various employment offices specialization by occupation and by industries, and to meet the needs of particular categories of applicants, such as disabled persons) of the Convention.

The Commitee also notes from the Government's report the information concerning action taken as a result of preparation of various youth programmes and consultancy services. The Government indicates that there is a lack of combined efforts in this sphere and highlights the need to have a comprehensive employment programme which is being prepared by a team of experts. The Committee asks the Government to continue to describe the developments in this field, and more particularly, special arrangements for juveniles made within the framework of the employment and vocational guidance services, in accordance with Article 8.

The Committee reiterates its hope that the Government will provide statistical information, as soon as it becomes available, in accordance with point IV of the report form.

[The Government is asked to report in detail for the period ending 30 June 1994.]
