Article 4 of the Convention. Right to collective bargaining. In its previous comments, the Committee requested the Government to specify the scope of section 12 of the Collective Bargaining Act No. 20-A/92, which provides that collective agreements may not contain provisions concerning fiscal measures or price policy measures. The Committee notes that the Government’s report does not contain any information on this matter. The Committee recalls that provisions such as these might involve restrictions on collective bargaining that are incompatible with the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to indicate whether the new Constitution, which recognizes workers’ fundamental rights, has had an impact on the validity of the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Act No. 20-A/92. If not, the Committee requests the Government once again to specify the scope of section 12 of the abovementioned act and to take advantage of the present revision of Act No. 20-A/92 and the technical assistance requested by the Government – in consultation with the social partners – to clarify the scope of section 12, to bring it in line with the requirements of the Convention.

Measures to stimulate and promote collective bargaining. In its previous comments, the Committee had noted a limited number of collective agreements in force. It therefore requests the Government to provide information on the measures taken to promote collective bargaining at the enterprise level or at a higher level, indicating the number of collective agreements at present in force as well as the number of workers covered by these collective agreements.
