Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1992, Publicación: 79ª reunión CIT (1992)

The Committee notes with regret 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 matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

The Committee noted that several collective agreements contain a provision under which the employer, if the employee is transferred, must pay all the costs incurred by the employee, his wife and three children and that in practice this provision applies to any woman employee who submits her claim (Collective Agreement for the Hotel, Catering and Entertainment Industries, SLG, Vol. CXIII, No. 3, of 11 January 1982; Collective Agreement for Transport, SLG, Vol. CXIV, No. 24, 28 April 1983; Collective Agreement for Public Utilities, SLG, Vol. CXIII, No. 61, 16 September 1982).

The Committee noted that the collective agreements entered into in the public sector (SLG, Vol. CXVI, No. 95, 15 November 1985; SLG, Vol. CXVI, No. 83, 15 October 1985) contain identical provisions. The Government stated in its report for the period ending 30 June 1985 that the comments of the Committee would be communicated to the Trade Group Councils concerned so that they could take note of these during their round of negotiations.

The Committee noted this statement and asks the Government to furnish information on any measures taken to bring the collective agreements into conformity with established practice.
