The Committee notes the Government's report.

Article 1 of the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to indicate in its next report the measures which have been adopted or are envisaged to guarantee all workers (and not only trade union leaders, as provided by section 48 of Act No. 54/1991) adequate protection against acts of anti-union discrimination calculated to make the employment of a worker subject to the condition that he shall not join a union or cause the dismissal of a worker, or otherwise prejudice a worker by reason of union membership, enforced by effective and sufficiently dissuasive sanctions.

Article 2. The Committee requests the Government to indicate the specific measures which have been taken or are envisaged to guarantee that workers' organizations enjoy adequate protection against any acts of interference by employers, and particularly against acts which are designed to promote the establishment of workers' organizations supported by financial or other means, with the object of placing such organizations under the control of employers or employers' organizations, and enforced by effective and sufficiently dissuasive sanctions.
