The Committee observes that, in their comments on the application of Convention No. 98, the International Organisation of Employers (IOE), the Uruguayan Chamber of Industries (CIU) and the National Chamber of Commerce and Services of Uruguay (CNCS) recalled that the Committee on Freedom of Association, in its examination of Case No. 2699, considered that the exercise of the right to strike and the occupation of the premises should respect the right to work of non-strikers, and the right of the company management to enter its premises, and asked the Government to ensure respect for these principles in regulatory legislation and practice. According to the IOE, CIU and CNCS, the Government has not enacted any legislation relating to the abovementioned principles and in practice the company premises continue to be occupied by the workers, the right to work of non-strikers is obstructed, and in some cases the company management has been prevented from entering the premises. The Committee requests the Government to supply information in its next report on the measures which it has taken in relation to this matter.
