Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 1993, publiée 80ème session CIT (1993)

The Committee notes with regret that for the second year in succession the Government's report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation, which read as follows:

The Committee notes with regret that no measures have been taken to eliminate the discrepancies between the national legislation and the Convention. In the circumstances, the Committee can only recall its comments of the last few years which concern the following points: 1. Article 1 of the Convention. The provisions of the national legislation are insufficient to guarantee workers adequate protection, accompanied by sufficiently effective and dissuasive sanctions, at the time of recruitment and during the employment relationship. 2. Article 2. The present provisions are not sufficient to ensure adequate protection of workers' organizations, accompanied by sufficiently effective and dissuasive sanctions, against acts of interference by employers and their organizations. 3. Articles 4 and 6. The possibility of collective bargaining is not offered to employees of state enterprises and other authorities, since these categories are excluded from the scope of the Labour Code, whereas under Article 6 of the Convention, only public servants engaged in the administration of the State are not covered by the Convention. As the Committee has been repeating these comments for years, it again asks the Government to do everything in its power to take the necessary measures to ensure that full effect is given to the Convention in the very near future.

[The Government is asked to provide full particulars at the 80th Session of the Conference.]
