Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1992, published 79th ILC session (1992)

Fee-Charging Employment Agencies Convention (Revised), 1949 (No. 96) - Türkiye (Ratification: 1952)

Part III of the Convention. The Committee takes note of the Government's report for the period 1987-91, as well as of the comments made by the Turkish Confederation of Employers' Associations. It notes the Government's statement to the effect that "Turkey assumes its responsibility for Part II of the Convention". In this connection, the Committee would like to recall that, in accordance with Article 2, paragraph 2, "any Member accepting the provisions of Part III of the Convention may subsequently notify the Director-General that it accepts the provisions of Part II; as from the date of the registration of such notification by the Director-General, the provisions of Part III of the Convention shall cease to be applicable to the Member in question and the provisions of Part II shall apply to it".

It also notes that the Turkish Confederation of Employers' Associations considers that, in view of developments on the international level in this field, it would be useful to open fee-charging employment agencies in Turkey too, especially for highly competent personnel. The Government did not comment on this opinion expressed by the employers. Noting that the ILO has not yet received the formal notification to be made in conformity with Article 2 of the Convention, and already requested by a letter of the Office dated 14 December 1991, the Committee trusts that the Government will be in a position to clarify the situation as soon as possible.
