Convenio sobre las indemnizaciones de desempleo (naufragio), 1920 (núm. 8) - Aruba

In reply to the Committee’s comments made since 1995, the Government indicated that no shipowner has had recourse to the notion of “serious misconduct” and that this term has therefore not been subject to any interpretation by a court. Moreover, the Government states that the profession of seafarer does not exist in Aruba and that no vessel is engaged in maritime navigation. The Government intends to denounce the declaration accepting the obligations of this Convention for Aruba. The Government indicated that it would make efforts to consult the employers’ and workers’ organizations on the question of denunciation. The Committee requests the Government to keep it informed of any changes regarding the number of vessels and seafarers registered as well as of the outcome of the tripartite consultations concerning denunciation.
