Le Brun O.

ILO Working Papers from International Labour Organization

Abstract: This document brings together the findings of a number of studies on the informal sector, and provides an analysis of the issues and possible policy options for the informal sector in Guinea. The book starts with a synthesis of the informal sector issue and the links with the modern sector in the Guinean context. It discusses the country's past, the different economic and financial reforms and the structural adjustment programme. Various studies of the informal sector are presented, as well as the organisations for the promotion of the informal sector and those dealing with vocational training. The sector's contribution to the country's employment and national product, the human resources involved and the skill acquisition are discussed. Management and organisational problems of small firms, obstacles to their growth and financial aspects, including taxation are analysed. The concluding chapter calling for a recognition of informal sector issues contains proposals for preliminary assistance to the sector and a general policy including sectoral approach, extension to rural non-farm activities, suitable financial and fiscal policy.
