Article 3(d). Protection of civil servants and agents of the State against discrimination. The Committee notes the Government’s explanations on this point, and particularly the information relating to section 2 of Ordinance No. 2007-025 of 9 April 2007 issuing the Code of Ethics for Public Employees, in accordance with which any discrimination on the basis of origin, race, religion, sex, tribe, ethnic origin, political, philosophical or trade union beliefs is prohibited. Noting that the Government also indicates that public employees can lodge complaints against the State (administrative chamber of the Supreme Court) if they consider that they are victims of discrimination on the basis of colour, religion, political opinion, national extraction or social origin, the Committee requests the Government to provide information on: (i) any complaints of discrimination lodged by a public employee, with an indication of the grounds indicated, the legal basis for the complaint and the outcome; and (ii) any measure adopted to inform public employees of their rights in relation to non-discrimination. It also requests the Government to specify whether clause 2 of the Ethics Code refers to “religion”, as indicated in its report, or to “region”, as indicated in the compendium of texts published by the Ministry of the Public Service and Labour.

Follow-up to the recommendations of the tripartite committee (representation made under article 24 of the ILO Constitution). The Committee is continuing to ensure follow-up to the recommendations adopted in 1991 by the Government Body following a representation made by the National Confederation of Workers of Senegal (CNTS) under article 24 of the ILO Constitution with regard to the situation of black Mauritanian workers of Senegalese origin who, in terms of their employment, suffered the consequences of the conflict with Senegal in 1989. It notes the Government’s indication that all the workers who were victims of the events of 1989 have been reinstated in the public service and that, in the case of those who have reached the age of retirement, the State has ensured that they benefit from retirement pensions.
