Observation (CEACR) - adopted 1989, published 76th ILC session (1989)

With reference to its previous comments concerning limitations on voluntary collective bargaining, which have restricted wage negotiations for several years, the Committee takes note of the Government's report and notes with satisfaction that, since 1 January 1987, representatives of the social partners have regained their full freedom to negotiate and to conclude collective agreements concerning conditions of remuneration. The Government adds that the wage restraint measures were of a temporary nature and were justified by the disturbed economic situation.
