General Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2023, published 112nd ILC session (2024)

Grenada

The Committee notes with deep concern that the first reports on the application of the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006, as amended (MLC, 2006), and the Domestic Workers Convention, 2011 (No. 189), both due since 2021, have not been received. Eight reports are now due, most of which should have included information in reply to the Committee’s comments, including on fundamental Conventions.

The Committee launches an urgent appeal to the Government to send its first reports without delay on the MLC, 2006, and on Convention No. 189, and advises it that, even in the absence of these reports, the Committee may fully review the application of these Conventions at its next meeting on the basis of available information.

Recalling that technical assistance was provided on these issues this year by the ILO Decent Work Team for the Caribbean and the International Training Centre of the ILO, the Committee firmly hopes that the Government will soon submit all its reports in accordance with its constitutional obligation and that they will respond to the Committee’s comments.
