Effect given to the recommendations of the Committee and the Governing Body

1. 147. On last examining the case, at its March 2011 meeting, the Committee trusted that the Constitutional Court would hand down a ruling in the near future in connection with the dismissal of the leaders of the Union of Workers of Hogar Clínica San Juan de Dios, Mr Lamberto Óscar Babetón Venancio, Mr Lucio Cuya Pullo, Ms Mónica Elisa Meneses La Riva and Mr Ángel Teófilo Tarazona Rodríguez [see 359th Report, paras 144–146]. This case was submitted by the General Confederation of Workers of Peru (CGTP).
2. 148. In its communication dated 3 May 2011, the Government attaches a copy of the ruling of the Constitutional Court dated 10 January 2011, noting that the threat of infringement of the trade union rights of the persons in question has been lifted, in particular because four workers of Hogar Clínica San Juan de Dios, including Ms Mónica Elisa Meneses La Riva and Mr Ángel Teófilo Tarazona Rodríguez, signed a termination agreement. As to the other unionized workers, including the General Secretary, the ruling states that the Subdirectorate for Collective Bargaining of the Ministry of Labour declared the enterprise’s request for collective dismissal on economic and structural grounds inadmissible, with the workers being reinstated in their posts.
3. 149. The Committee notes this information with satisfaction. Finally, the Committee requests the Government to send its reply regarding the recent allegations made by the Federation of Peruvian Light and Power Workers (FTLFP) dated 21 and 28 August 2011.
