Articles 4 and 5 of the Convention. Protection of the right to organize and protection against acts of interference. For many years, the Committee has been pointing out that Act No. 18/92 establishing conditions for the establishment and operation of trade unions for public employees contains no specific provisions on protection against the discrimination of public employees in their performance of trade union activities, or provisions prohibiting acts of interference by the public authorities in the internal affairs of trade unions. The Committee notes with regret that the Government merely indicates that the review of Act No. 18/92 is one of the main resolutions of the Public Service Forum organized by the Government in January 2020 with all the social partners from the public sector. The Committee hopes that the legislative review process will begin in the near future, and that it will make it possible to ensure: (i) adequate protection against discrimination for carrying out union activities; and (ii) adequate protection for trade union organizations against acts of interference by the public authorities in their establishment, functioning or administration, including, in both cases, rapid and impartial procedures and sufficiently dissuasive penalties. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on any developments in this area.

Article 7. Procedure for determining terms and conditions of employment. In its previous comments, the Committee requested the Government to continue to provide information illustrating the development of the collective bargaining with public employees’ organizations, as envisaged by the Convention. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that, in the context of the ILO technical assistance mission in 2023, an action plan was drawn up to establish a body dedicated to social dialogue for this purpose. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on any developments in this respect.
