The Committee notes the observations of the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) concerning difficulties relating to the development of collective bargaining (absence of criteria for determining trade union representativeness; excessive power of the authorities to extend, amend or cancel a collective agreement (sections L.85 and L.88 of the Labour Code); absence of mechanisms to promote collective bargaining, etc.). The Committee requests the Government to send its comments on this matter and in particular to provide examples of recourse to section L.85 of the Labour Code for establishing a joint committee with a view to concluding a collective labour agreement, or for determining the representative character of a trade union or occupational grouping.

Article 4 of the Convention. Promotion and use of collective bargaining. In its previous comments, the Committee encouraged the Government to promote collective bargaining in all sectors of activity. The Committee notes that the Government refers in its report to the signature of collective agreements in the banking sector (2012) and the cleaning sector (2014), and also to bargaining in progress in the joint committees for the caretaking, private security and press sectors. The Committee requests the Government to continue providing information on the steps taken to promote collective bargaining in all sectors of activity and, as far as possible, to supply statistics on the number of collective agreements signed, specifying the sectors and the number of workers covered.
