Convention (n° 87) sur la liberté syndicale et la protection du droit syndical, 1948 - Aruba

Article 3 of the Convention. In its previous comments, the Committee had asked the Government to envisage amending or repealing section 374(a) to (c) of the Penal Code and section 82 of Ordinance No. 159 of 1964 which prohibit the right to strike by public employees. The Committee notes from the Government's latest report that the Department of Labour is currently undertaking a complete revision of existing labour legislation and that it is considering requesting ILO assistance in this regard. The Committee hopes that the necessary measures will be taken in the near future to bring the above-mentioned provisions of the legislation into conformity with the principle of freedom of association and requests the Government to indicate, in its next report, the progress made in this regard.
