Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1990, published 77th ILC session (1990)

The Committee notes, from the comments submitted by the General Central of Workers (CGT), that the authorities have refused to register the United Union of the Free Zone of San Pedro de Macoris, and that workers in the free trade zones have been dismissed to prevent them from exercising their trade union rights.

The Committee requests the Government to supply copies of the legal provisions governing the right to organise of workers employed in free trade zones and to supply detailed information on the situation of these workers as regards the exercise of these rights in practice.
