Observation (CEACR) - adopted 1995, published 83rd ILC session (1996)

Right to Organise and Collective Bargaining Convention, 1949 (No. 98) - Australia (Ratification: 1973)

Display in: French - SpanishView all

The Committee takes note of the Government's report. It notes that the major development which has occurred in relation to the Convention during the reporting period concerns the amendment of the Industrial Relations Act, 1988, by the Industrial Relations Reform Act, 1993. It proposes to examine the compatibility of law and practice with the Convention after the Committee on Freedom of Association has examined a complaint (Case No. 1774) against the Government of Australia presented by the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry which alleges, amongst others, violations of the rights enshrined in the Convention as a result of the Industrial Relations Act, 1988, as amended.
