Promotion of collective bargaining in practice. Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes the information provided by the Government concerning the conclusion of six collective agreements, of which three have been signed by private security enterprises covering a total of 1536 workers. It also notes the Government’s indication that there are other private security enterprises which have also concluded collective agreements, but that they have not provided information on the number of workers covered. However, the Committee notes with regret that the Government has not provided information on any action taken to promote collective bargaining, and that it has not indicated whether the National Committee for the Promotion of Collective Bargaining is once again in operation. Noting the information provided and recalling that under Article 4 of the Convention it is the responsibility of the Government to promote the voluntary collective bargaining of terms and conditions of employment, the Committee requests the Government to: (i) take specific measures to promote collective bargaining and report the measures adopted; (ii) provide information on the situation with regard to the National Committee for the Promotion of Collective Bargaining; and (iii) continue to provide information on the number of collective agreements concluded and in force in the country, the sectors concerned and the number of workers covered by the agreements.
