Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2005, published 95th ILC session (2006)

The Committee takes note of the Government’s report The Committee also notes the comments of the General Confederation of Labour-Liberté (CGT-Liberté) sent in two communications, as well as those of the General Union of Workers of Cameroon (UGTC) and the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU) concerning the application of the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to respond to the above comments.

The Committee notes that in its first communication of 29 August 2005, the CGT-Liberté refers to acts of anti-union discrimination and interference in several enterprises and the lack of provisions which provide adequate protection against these acts, as well as the absence of collective agreements in certain branches of activity. The Committee requests the Government to institute an independent inquiry and if the allegations of CGT-Liberté are confirmed, to take all necessary measures of redress.
