The Committee notes the Government’s report.
The Committee notes that the Government’s report contains no concrete reply to previous comments. It hopes that the next report will include full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request.
Article 2 of the Convention. The Committee had noted in its previous direct request that under provision 18.1.11 of the Labour Law, collective agreements shall provide the necessary facilities to trade unions and their elective officials to enable them to carry out their functions promptly and efficiently. The Committee requests once again the Government to keep it informed of the measures that have actually been taken through collective agreements to allow workers’ representatives such facilities as well as of the number of collective agreements concluded and the number of workers covered by them. The Committee points out in this connection that the Workers’ Representatives Recommendation, 1971 (No. 143), gives some examples of such facilities: time off from work to attend trade union meetings, congresses, etc.; access to all workplaces in the undertaking, where necessary; distribution to workers of publications; and the possibility of collecting trade union dues regularly on the premises of the enterprise, etc. The Committee recalls that the Convention can also be applied through the legislation and invites the Government to consider measures so that the legislation ensures concrete facilities to workers’ representatives.
