Article 5 of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. The Government indicated in August 2014 that Zambia is pursuing its social dialogue framework which provided for tripartite consultations among social partners on matters concerning the development of the labour market. The Government indicates that consultations were held to discuss the ratification of the Maternity Protection Convention, 2000 (No. 183). It adds that the process is still under careful consideration given the budgetary implications of ratification. The Committee invites the Government to provide information on the content and outcome of the consultations held on all matters concerning international labour standards covered by Article 5(1) of the Convention. It also invites the Government to continue to provide information on the consultations held to re-examine unratified Conventions, specifically the Maternity Protection Convention, 2000 (No. 183).
