Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2006, published 96th ILC session (2007)

Right to Organise and Collective Bargaining Convention, 1949 (No. 98) - Slovakia (Ratification: 1993)

The Committee takes note of the comments made by the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU) dated 10 August 2006, alleging that bargaining rights were weakened by provisions which state that higher level collective agreements (covering a whole industry, sector or region) only apply to those employers who specifically agree to them in writing. The Committee requests the Government to send its comments on this issue raised by the ICFTU.
