Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2001, Publicación: 90ª reunión CIT (2002)

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 matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes that, according to the report, although Supreme Decision No. 217064, of 23 May 1997, issuing basic rules for the personnel administration system in the public sector, does not include in the protection against discrimination (section 2(d)) the criteria of colour, national extraction or social origin, the Government considers that article 6 of the political Constitution of the State is sufficiently explicit and precise, and it does not consider it necessary to amend section 2 above at the present time. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate whether, in the event that workers in the public sector allege discrimination on grounds of colour, national extraction or social origin, they can make use of the appeal procedure set out in section 14(2) of the Supreme Decision, under the terms of which "discriminatory or unjust treatment or violations of the rules which govern personnel administration in the public sector shall be grounds for the submission of appeals" or any other recourse procedures available to them. Please supply copies of any relevant administrative and/or judicial decisions.
