Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 1994, Publicación: 81ª reunión CIT (1994)

Convenio sobre la libertad sindical y la protección del derecho de sindicación, 1948 (núm. 87) - Burkina Faso (Ratificación : 1960)

The Committee notes the entry into force of Decree No. 92-379/PRES of 31 December 1992 to promulgate the Labour Code (Act No. 11/92/ADP, 22 December 1992).

1. With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes with regret that the new Labour Code has not repealed the provisions of Zatu No. AN VI-008/FP/TRAV of 26 October 1988 establishing the general conditions of service of the public service, which require public servants to respect the revolutionary order under penalty of disciplinary sanctions (sections 6, 7, 9, 36 and 46 of the Zatu).

The Committee accordingly urges the Government to repeal the above-mentioned provisions of the Zatu of 26 October 1988 so as to bring the legislation fully into conformity with the Convention. It asks the Government to indicate in its next report any measures that have been taken in this respect.

2. The Committee is also addressing a direct request to the Government concerning certain provisions of the new Labour Code.
