Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2000, published 89th ILC session (2001)

Employment Service Convention, 1948 (No. 88) - Ghana (Ratification: 1961)

Article 4 of the Convention.  The Committee notes the information contained in the Government’s detailed report. It notes in particular the Government’s statement that the advisory committees have ceased to function due to budgetary constraints, and that the Government would appreciate receiving technical assistance from the Office to help it overcome this problem. The Government also requests technical assistance to help train its staff in modern employment service methods. The Committee hopes that the Office will be able to provide the assistance requested, and that the Government will resume in the near future operation of the advisory committees.

The Committee also notes that the Government is in the process of harmonizing the employment service with the needs of the economy and the labour market. It would appreciate being kept informed of these changes and their impact on the provision of employment services.
