DISPLAYINEnglish - French - SpanishAlle anzeigen

Article 12 of the Convention. Regular payment of wages in the public service. In response to the Committee’s previous comment, the Government indicates in its report that the Standing framework for consultation and bargaining (CPCN), established pursuant to Decree No. 14.158 of 14 August 2014, is the consultation and social dialogue mechanism that underpins the General Conditions of Service of the Public Service. This body comes under the aegis of the Ministry of Public Service and is composed of representatives of the State institutions and the trade union organizations of public sector employees. The Committee notes that, according to the Government’s indications, the question of wage arrears in the public service was raised in 2018, and that a memorandum of understanding was signed on 25 September 2019 and that a steering committee had been established on 20 October 2019. The Committee welcomes the efforts to which the Government has committed with a view to progressively clearing the wage arrears for 2001, 2002 and part of 2003. The Committee also notes that discussions are ongoing within the CPCN in respect of the remaining arrears, and that the precise amount of these will be determined by a joint mixed commission, put in place by the Government. The Committee requests the Government to renew its efforts with a view to the complete settlement of the wage arrears in the public sector. In the absence of new information in this regard, the Committee again requests the Government: (i) to take the necessary measures to ensure the regular payment of wages in this sector and to ensure efficient control, including the adoption of appropriate sanctions and the existence of means to redress any injuries caused, and: (ii) to provide information on all measures taken in this regard.
The Committee is raising other matters in a request addressed directly to the Government.
