Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1994, Publicación: 81ª reunión CIT (1994)

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

Further to its previous comments relating to the necessity of strengthening the sanctions for acts of anti-union discrimination, the Committee has taken note of the report submitted by the Government to the effect that it is in the process of amending the Labour Ordinance, Chapter 234 of the laws of Belize.

Recalling that sanctions provided for acts of anti-union discrimination should be sufficiently effective and dissuasive, the Committee once again hopes that said amendments will strengthen the fines provided for in the labour ordinance for acts of anti-union discrimination, and requests the Government to keep it informed of any development in this regard.
