CMNT_TITLE

The Committee regrets that the Government has confined itself to transmitting a copy of its report for the period between 30 June 1987 and 30 June 1988 and has not examined the comments that the Committee made in its March 1989 Session. The Commmittee is therefore bound to repeat its previous comments.

The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government in reply to its previous request, and in particular that the Labour Code (Title II, Chapter IV) is the law applicable to all sectors, including the public sector, with regard to the right to bargain collectively. The Government supplies a list of 28 public sector institutions (with the exception of ministries and comparable bodies) where collective agreements have been concluded. With regard to public servants employed in ministries, the Government points out that, in accordance with section 534 of the Labour Code, they have the right to unionise, with certain restrictions.

The Committee requests the Government to supply details on the legislation which grants the right to bargain collectively to workers in the public sector who are not engaged in the administration of the State and on the standards that are applicable in the event of collective disputes (Articles 4 and 6 of the Convention).

Articles 1 and 2. The Committee requests the Government to indicate which provisions guarantee protection of workers against acts of anti-union discrimination at the time of recruitment and during the employment relationship, and protection of workers' organisations against acts of interference in union matters by employers and employers' organisations and to indicate whether there exist sufficiently effective and dissuasive sanctions against such acts.
