Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2024, published 113rd ILC session (2025)

Article 4 of the Convention. Adaptation and harmonization of vocational training systems. Vocational training throughout life. The Committee notes the adoption of Delegated Decree No. 79 of 18 May 2022 on measures to promote employment, training and active labour market policies. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that the aim of this new text is to overhaul the employment incentive and vocational retraining schemes and active policies, by providing new tools and employment opportunities. The Committee notes, in particular, that this text updates all aspects relating to the vocational integration of persons without experience and the unemployed by introducing new training measures. The Committee also notes that a number of plans and reforms are currently under preparation, in particular in order to: (1) establish new lists of workers likely to enter employment, based on their specific occupational profiles; (2) offer the unemployed the opportunity to be trained in transversal skills (English and information technology); (3) revise and update the concept of “disadvantaged groups” on the basis of actual data; and (4) develop individual training needs plans for each unemployed person and launch a new in-enterprise training tool. The Committee notes with interest that these measures are consistent with the objectives of the Convention and aim to maximize the potential of human resources by improving access to employment and strengthening workers' skills. It requests the Government to continue providing information on the extension, adaptation and harmonization of its vocational training systems to meet the needs of young persons, adults and older workers. In particular, the Committee requests the Government to provide information on any progress made on these plans and reforms, and their impact on human resources development.

Article 5. Cooperation with employers’ and workers’ organizations. The Committee notes the information provided by the Government and by the employers‘ and workers’ organizations. The employers’ organizations indicate that, through the Social Services Fund, they provide annual training and further training. While the workers’ organizations, for their part, agree on the rationale behind these initiatives, they indicate that increasing the number of courses also requires an increase in the resources allocated. The Committee notes that the Government welcomes this dialogue, which is essential to ensuring that workers access and remain in the labour market. The Committee requests the Government to continue providing information on its initiatives and dialogue and collaboration with employers’ and workers’ organizations and, where appropriate, in accordance with national law and practice, with other interested bodies, in the preparation and implementation of vocational guidance and training policies and programmes, and on the allocation of related financing.
