Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 1993, publiée 80ème session CIT (1993)

Convention (n° 87) sur la liberté syndicale et la protection du droit syndical, 1948 - Danemark (Ratification: 1951)

With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes with interest the information supplied by the Government stating that the 1987 legislation prohibiting strikes has expired and that all 1991 contracts are negotiated agreements.

The Committee also notes the Government's comments regarding article 10 of Act No. 408 of 1988, on the Danish International Ship's Register, an Act which, contrary to Articles 2, 3 and 10 of the Convention, inhibits non-resident workers who are employed aboard Danish ships from being represented in collective bargaining by organizations of their own choosing. The Committee notes the Government's statement that the issue falls primarily under Convention No. 98, and that the Government is preparing a complete reply for 1993 under the said Convention. The Committee asks the Government to keep it informed of any development in this regard.
