Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 2006, publiée 96ème session CIT (2007)

The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received.

It also notes the comments of the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU) of 10 August 2006, according to which the right to collective bargaining is limited to a single agreement that must be negotiated at national level and approved by government representatives as well as trade unions and employers. Moreover, the ICFTU points out that employees in free zones do not enjoy the same protection against anti-union discrimination as other workers. The Committee requests the Government to respond to these comments in its next report.
