Article 2 of the Convention. Anti-union discrimination. The Committee notes with regret that the Government’s report does not respond to the 2011 comments of the Workers’ Confederation of Comoros (CTC) which refer to numerous dismissals of trade union members and leaders in the para-public and port sectors. The Committee urges the Government to conduct an inquiry in this regard and to report on the subsequent results.

Article 4. Promotion of collective bargaining. For several years, the Committee has been requesting the Government to take measures to promote collective bargaining in the public and private sectors. The Committee had noted the comments made by the Employers’ Organization of Comoros (OPACO), according to which collective agreements in the pharmaceutical and bakeries sectors, which had been under negotiation for several years, had still not been concluded and that negotiations in the press sector were under way. The Committee had noted with regret that, according to OPACO, the Government had not taken any measures to promote collective bargaining in either the public or the private sectors. The Committee had once again regretted the absence of progress in the collective bargaining under way and expressed the firm hope that the negotiations would be completed in the near future. The Committee lastly had noted that, according to the CTC, there had still not been progress in collective bargaining and that it was not structured and had no framework at any level, and that joint bodies in the public service had still not been put in place.

The Committee notes the request for technical assistance made by the Government in its report. The Committee expresses the firm hope that technical assistance of the Office may be carried out in the very near future and urges the Government to take all necessary measures to promote collective bargaining in the public and private sectors. The Committee requests the Government to provide information in this regard.

[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2016.]
