The Committee notes the comments from the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC), dated 29 August 2008, to the effect that: (1) the Government refuses, in the context of social dialogue, to recognize the Union of Trade Unions of Chad (UST) as the most representative organization; (2) some trade union leaders have been dismissed, transferred or prosecuted for anti-union reasons; and (3) the Government has refused to negotiate with the inter-trade union association which includes the UST.
The Committee notes that the Government declares these allegations to be unfounded and also refers to a number of agreements and examples of social dialogue.
Noting the ITUC’s comments and the Government’s report, the Committee requests the Government to ensure that neither the UST nor its leaders or members are discriminated against on account of their trade union activities and that, in the relations between the authorities and the UST, the status of the UST as the most representative trade union organization is given due consideration.
