Observation (CEACR) - adopted 1999, published 88th ILC session (2000)

The Committee regrets that the Government has not forwarded either its report or its comments concerning the communication by the Confederation of Gabonese Free Trade Unions (CGSL), dated 20 May 1998, and the communications of the Federation of Energy, Mines and Allied Enterprises dated 14 May and 9 November 1998. These communications refer to acts of anti-union discrimination in different enterprises and to obstacles to collective bargaining. The Committee requests the Government to send its comments in this regard and recalls that the Convention requires a guarantee of adequate protection against acts of anti-union discrimination, and provides for the promotion of collective bargaining.

[The Government is asked to report in detail in 2000.]
