Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2008, published 98th ILC session (2009)

Termination of Employment Convention, 1982 (No. 158) - Uganda (Ratification: 1990)

The Committee notes with regret that the Government has not provided any information on the application of the Convention since its last report received in June 2004, which indicated that the draft Employment Bill which, according to the Government, should give effect to the Convention, had still not been adopted. The Committee understands that the Employment Act was adopted and came into force in 2006. In this context, the Committee considers it particularly regrettable that the Government has still not provided the relevant information on the application of the Convention. The Committee trusts that the Government will be in a position to provide a detailed report containing full particulars on the application of each of the provisions of the Convention in both law and practice.

[The Government is invited to reply in detail to the present Comment in 2009.]
