Effect given to the recommendations of the Committee and the Governing Body
  1. 65. At its meeting in March 2004, the Committee examined this case relating to the dismissal of 42 trade union members from the municipality of Esquipulas without the judicial authorization provided for in the Labour Code [see 333rd Report, paras. 71-73]. On that occasion, the Committee requested the Government to continue to make every effort to ensure that the dismissed workers were reinstated and to keep it informed of any judicial or other type of complaint initiated in this respect.
  2. 66. In a communication dated 2 December 2004, the Government states that, with regard to collective dispute No. 12-2003 which was being dealt with by the Labour, Social Security and Family Court in the Department of Chiquimula after being filed by 42 municipal employees against the municipality of Esquipulas in the Department of Chiquimula on 19 March 2002, the Court decided to close the case because the workers in question, through the executive committee of the Trade Union of Workers of the Municipality of Esquipulas, had agreed on a settlement with the municipal council which provided for their reinstatement. In a communication of 27 July 2004, the complainant (the CGTG) confirms that the 42 workers in question were reinstated on 16 January 2004, and adds that a collective agreement on working conditions was concluded on 5 March 2004.
  3. 67. The Committee notes this information with interest.
