Effect given to the recommendations of the Committee and the Governing Body
- 15. The Committee last examined this case, which concerns the rights of association and collective bargaining of casual workers, at its March 2002 session, and requested to be kept informed of developments [327th Report, paras. 39-41].
- 16. In a communication dated 16 April 2002, the Government of New Brunswick states that it is continuing its survey of the education and hospital sectors in other Canadian jurisdictions in order to ascertain how they address the situation of casual employees, and that replies have been received from 17 of the 28 jurisdictions surveyed.
- 17. While taking note of this information, the Committee points out that, irrespective of how other Canadian jurisdictions may address this issue, casual workers should have the right to establish and join organizations of their own choosing and to bargain collectively. The Committee expresses, once again, the hope that the Government will take rapidly the necessary legislative measures, and requests it to keep it informed of developments in this respect.
