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

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

With reference to its previous comments on the need to confine restrictions on the right to strike to civil servants exercising authority in the name of the State or to services whose interruption would endanger the life, personal safety or health of the whole or part of the population, and to ensure that any prohibition is offset with the appropriate guarantees, the Committee notes the Government's statement in its report that the Bill which is being drafted has taken its comments into account.

However, the Committee notes that the Government's report does not contain information on the draft Labour Code which had been prepared with the technical assistance of the ILO. It requests the Government to supply information in its next report on the measures taken in this respect and to supply a copy of any legal text which is adopted, including the Labour Code, the Bill respecting strikes or any other relevant text.
