Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1989, published 76th ILC session (1989)

Freedom of Association and Protection of the Right to Organise Convention, 1948 (No. 87) - Guinea (Ratification: 1959)

The Committee observes that the Government took note of its comments aoncerning the restrictions that section 329 of the Code may induce with respect to the various forms of strike.

The Committee draws the Government's attention to the fact that to be fully compatible with the Convention, section 329 of the Code (which defines a strike as "... a collective and complete stoppage of work ...") should cover other forms of strike, such as work-to-rule, occupation of enterprises or workplaces, sit-down strike or peaceful picketing, which may be excluded by the term "complete".

The Committee hopes that the legislation will be amended along these lines.
