Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1997, published 86th ILC session (1998)

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the following matters raised in its previous direct request:

The Committee notes in particular that work on the Labour Code has restarted with assistance from the International Labour Office and in consultation with the employers' and workers' organizations concerned (Grenada Employers' Federation and Trade Union Council). In addition, the Committee understands that a draft revision of the labour legislation -- which includes provisions on the protection and regulation of wages -- has already been transmitted to the Government by the Office. The Committee hopes that the revised labour legislation will come into force in the near future and that, as soon as it has been adopted, a copy of it will be sent to the Office. Please also continue to provide, in accordance with points IV and V of the report form, all available information on the results of the operation of the minimum wage-fixing machinery.
