Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 1999, publiée 88ème session CIT (2000)

Convention (n° 98) sur le droit d'organisation et de négociation collective, 1949 - Belize (Ratification: 1983)

The Committee notes with regret that the Government's report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation on the following matters:

The Committee recalls that the sanctions that may be imposed upon an employer found guilty of anti-union discrimination against workers may not exceed $250 or a period of imprisonment of not more than six months (Labour Ordinance, Chapter 234, section 199). Given that the monetary penalties have not been adapted in the light of inflation and do not exert a sufficiently dissuasive effect against acts of anti-union discrimination, the Committee requests the Government to take measures in order to amend the legislation to ensure that it is in full conformity with the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to indicate in its next report the measures it has taken or envisages in this regard.
