Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 1999, Publicación: 88ª reunión CIT (2000)

Convenio sobre el derecho de sindicación y de negociación colectiva, 1949 (núm. 98) - República Árabe Siria (Ratificación : 1957)

The Committee notes the Government's report. The Committee had already pointed out that section 98 of the Syrian Labour Code of 1959 permitted the authorities to refuse to approve a collective agreement or cancellation of any clause likely to harm the economic interests of the country. The Government indicates that the repeal of the provision in question is planned and has communicated the text of a draft amendment to certain provisions of the Labour Code that is in the process of being examined by the authorities. Section 1 of this draft contemplates the repeal of section 98 mentioned above. The Committee requests the Government to supply the final text once it is adopted.
