The Committee notes the observations of the International Organisation of Employers (IOE), the Chamber of Industry of Uruguay (CIU) and the National Chamber of Commerce and Services of Uruguay (CNCS), received on 3 December 2015 and 31 August 2017, which contain the allegation that there is persistent non-observance of the provisions of the Convention. It also notes the Government’s reply to the observations of 2015, which was received on 5 July 2016.

Article 5 of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. The Government indicates in its report that the Ministry of Labour and Social Security has held consultations in relation to the questionnaires and requests of the ILO and the preparation of reports during the 2014–17 period. After they have been prepared, the reports are discussed by the various sectors in the Tripartite Group on International Standards at the Ministry of Labour. The Government also indicates that the HIV and AIDS Recommendation, 2010 (No. 200), the Social Protection Floors Recommendation, 2012 (No. 202), the Forced Labour (Supplementary Measures) Recommendation, 2014 (No. 203) and the Transition from the Informal to the Formal Economy Recommendation, 2015 (No. 204), were forwarded for submission to Parliament after being examined and discussed in the Tripartite Group on International Standards. The Night Work Convention, 1990 (No. 171), is also in the process of being referred to Parliament. The Government also refers to various actions carried out by the sectoral tripartite committees in relation to occupational safety and health. The Committee notes the observations of the IOE and the CNCS on the technical assistance provided by the Office in the context of Case No. 2699 of the Committee on Freedom of Association; the Committee will examine these observations in its comments on the application of the Right to Organise and Collective Bargaining Convention, 1949 (No. 98). The Committee requests the Government to continue sending information on the consultations held on each of the matters related to international labour standards covered by Article 5(1)(a)–(e) of the Convention.
