Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1996, publiée 85ème session CIT (1997)

Convention (n° 29) sur le travail forcé, 1930 - Guinée (Ratification: 1959)

The Committee notes that no report has been received from the Government. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the following matter raised in its previous direct request:

Freedom of state employees to leave their employment. In its previous comments, the Committee noted the Government's statements to the effect that public servants who have benefited from training at the expense of the State have to complete at least five years of actual service in the administration for their resignation applications to be approved.

In its report received in April 1994, the Government states that only workers covered by the provisions of the Labour Code are subject to the obligation to remain in the service of their employers for a period at least equivalent to that of their training and that, in the case of public servants, this obligation is not enforced.

The Committee requests the Government to supply copies of the texts that are applicable in this respect.

The Committee also requests the Government to indicate whether the new conditions of service of the public service, to which reference was made in previous reports, have been adopted.
