The Committee takes note of the Government’s report received in the first half of 2020, as well as the supplementary information provided by the Government in light of the decision adopted by the Governing Body at its 338th Session (June 2020). The Committee also notes the observations of the Trade Union Confederation of Burundi (COSYBU) received on 19 August 2019 and 14 August 2020 concerning the matters examined in the present comment.

The Committee had previously requested the Government to provide its comments on the observations made by the COSYBU, according to which the legislative texts relating to trade union representatives (the ordinance implementing the Labour Code) had not yet been adopted. In its previous comments, the Committee noted the Government’s indication that its comments would be taken into account in the context of the current revision of the Labour Code. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that the technical committee has completed its work and that a draft revised Labour Code is before Parliament pending adoption. It also notes the indication of the COSYBU that trade union organizations recommended to Parliament that certain sections be added to the draft Labour Code to ensure the protection of trade union representatives. The Committee expects that the draft revised Labour Code gives full effect to the provisions of the Convention. It requests the Government to provide information on any further developments regarding the current legislative process and to send a copy of the revised Labour Code, once it has been adopted.
