Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 1999, Publicación: 88ª reunión CIT (2000)

The Committee notes with deep regret that the Government's report has not been received. As it is the ninth year without a government report, the Committee can only repeat its previous observation on the following matters:

The Committee recalled the importance of sufficiently effective and dissuasive measures to ensure the application in practice of basic legal standards prohibiting acts of anti-union discrimination. It notes that section 3(2) of the Labour Regulations of 1960 (No. 15) provides that it is the duty of the Labour Commissioner to ensure that workers enjoy adequate protection against acts of anti-union discrimination in respect of their employment. The Committee requests the Government to indicate, in its next report, the manner in which section 3(2) is applied in practice, including any statistics concerning the number of complaints of anti-union discrimination brought to the attention of the labour commissioner and whether any sanctions have been applied in such cases or compensation ordered for the worker who has suffered such acts of discrimination.

[The Government is asked to supply full particulars to the Conference at its 88th Session and to report in detail in 2000.]
