Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2005, publiée 95ème session CIT (2006)

Convention (n° 88) sur le service de l'emploi, 1948 - Lituanie (Ratification: 1994)

The Committee notes the detailed information supplied in the Government’s report received in September 2005 and the comments of the Lithuanian Labour Federation (LDF) forwarded to the Government in October 2004. The LDF considers that more public territorial jobcentres should be set up in the country, especially in the northern Lithuanian regions, where the unemployment rate is the highest. The LDF is concerned with the low productivity of the existing jobcentres. The LDF also refers to Article 6 of the Convention and stresses that the employment service should take appropriate measures to facilitate occupational and geographical mobility of jobseekers, in addition to temporary transfers of workers from one area to another and movement of workers from one country to another. The Committee invites the Government to include in its next report information on the efforts made in expanding the public employment service and such comments as it considers appropriate in relation to the observation made by the workers’ organization.

[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2006.]
