Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2007, Publicación: 97ª reunión CIT (2008)

The Committee notes the Government’s report.

1. Article 4 of the Convention. The Committee pointed out that the wording of section 12 of Act No. 20-A/92 of 14 August 1992 on the right to collective bargaining that provides that collective agreements may not contain provisions relating to fiscal and price policy measures, could lead to a restrictive interpretation of the right to collective bargaining and requested the Government to specify the scope of this provision and to provide examples of cases of its application. The Committee notes that the Government’s report does not contain any indication on this issue. Therefore, it once again requests the Government to indicate the scope of section 12 of Act No. 20-A/92 on the right of collective bargaining and to provide examples of cases of its application.

2. Finally the Committee notes the Government’s information concerning the signature of six enterprise collective agreements. It observes, however, that no indication is provided concerning other collective agreements at a higher level and the number of workers covered. The Committee recalls the obligation upon the Government to encourage and promote collective bargaining established in Article 4 of the Convention and requests the Government to send this information.
