Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1998, publiée 87ème session CIT (1999)

Convention (n° 146) sur les congés payés annuels (gens de mer), 1976 - Aruba

The Committee notes with regret that the Government's report has not been received. 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 matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

The Committee notes the Government's statement that no measures have been taken to give effect to the provisions of this Convention through legislation, administrative regulations or other actions because there are no seamen within the meaning of this Convention in Aruba. The Committee notes at the same time from Lloyds' Statistical Tables for 1992 that 154 ships are given as registered in Aruba and Netherlands Antilles together. It recalls that the Convention applies (under Article 2) to all persons employed on board seagoing ships registered in the territory and would be grateful if the Government would clarify the numbers of seafarers in these terms and the provisions by which the Convention is applied to them.
