Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 1998, Publicación: 87ª reunión CIT (1999)

Convenio sobre el derecho de sindicación y de negociación colectiva, 1949 (núm. 98) - Ghana (Ratificación : 1959)

The Committee notes with regret that the Government's report has not been received. Recalling that its previous comments concerned the 1985 Provisional National Defence Council (PNDC) Law 125, section 2 of which prohibits the application of the collective agreement to the Ghana Cocoa Board in cases where the Board decides to declare workers redundant for economic reasons, and section 3 of which cancels the provisions of collective agreements with respect to redundancy awards in the case of redundancies declared for economic reasons, the Committee asks the Government to indicate whether the law in question, has in fact now been repealed and, if not, to take the necessary measures to see that this is done. The Committee asks the Government to keep it informed in this respect.

The Committee hopes that the Government will do all in its power to take the necessary measures in the very near future.
