Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2009, publiée 99ème session CIT (2010)

Convention (n° 96) sur les bureaux de placement payants (révisée), 1949 - Luxembourg (Ratification: 1958)

The Committee notes 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:

1. In its report, the Government indicates that the system of placement by private employment agencies has been modified by the Act of 12 February 1999, respecting implementation of the 1998 National Action Plan for Employment.

2. The Committee recalls that the revision of Convention No. 96 was prompted by recognition of the role played by private employment agencies in the operation of the labour market and that Convention No. 181 is now the up to date standard in this area. It reminds Government that the ILO Governing Body invites the States parties to Convention No. 96 to contemplate ratifying, as appropriate, the Private Employment Agencies Convention, 1997 (No. 181), the ratification of which will, ipso jure, involve the immediate denunciation of Convention No. 96 (document GB.273/LILS/4(Rev.1), 273rd Session, Geneva, November 1998). The Committee requests the Government to keep it informed of any developments which might occur in this regard in consultation with the social partners.
