Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2004, Publicación: 93ª reunión CIT (2005)

In response to the observation of 2002, the Committee notes the information transmitted by the Government that the number of dockworkers employed by the National Ports Administration (ANP) amounted to 865 employees on 30 April 2004. The Government further states that through the redeployment of the former employees of the National Administration of Stevedoring Services (ANSE) in the Ministry of Labour and Social Security, these employees were able to retain not only their employment but also their salary as well as the other benefits that they might have been entitled to. The Committee asks the Government to continue to submit information on how the Convention is applied in practice, and to indicate how the "national policy" called for by the Convention encourages all concerned, both in the public as well as in the private sectors, to provide permanent or regular employment for dockworkers in accordance with Articles 2, 3 and 4 of the Convention.
