Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2002, Publicación: 91ª reunión CIT (2003)

The Committee notes the Government’s report and Ministerial Ordinance No. 110/59 of 30 April 1971 on the protection of all personnel representatives against dismissal.

In its previous comments the Committee noted that the national legislation grants no facilities to trade union representatives. It asked the Government to indicate whether provision is made for such facilities in collective agreements. In its reply, the Government indicates that the facilities to be granted to trade unions are established in sections 132 and 151 of the Labour Code and article 14 of the National Inter-Occupational Labour Agreement, concluded on 3 April 1980. The Committee notes that the abovementioned provisions of the Labour Code establish entitlement for all workers only to leave for workers’ education, trade union training and vocational training and further training. The Committee requests the Government to take steps to ensure that the national legislation makes express provision for facilities to be afforded to workers’ representatives (whether they are trade union or other representatives). The Committee asks the Government to send the text of the National Inter-Occupational Labour Agreement concluded on 3 April 1980, to which the Government refers but which has not been received.
