Convention (n° 144) sur les consultations tripartites relatives aux normes internationales du travail, 1976 - Türkiye (Ratification: 1993)

Effective tripartite consultations. The Committee notes the Government’s report received in December 2010 for the period ending May 2010 and the information provided by the Turkish Confederation of Employer Associations (TİSK) and the Confederation of Turkish Trade Unions (TÜRK-İŞ). The Committee notes that the Tripartite Consultative Committee met numerous times from 2008 to 2010 in order to discuss, among other items, legislative amendments arising out of points related to the application of ratified Conventions (Article 5(1)(d) of the Convention). In this regard, TİSK indicates that at a meeting held on 28 January 2009, in view of the global economic crisis, it was decided that the Government and the social partners should meet more regularly throughout 2009 to assess the situation. The matters discussed at the Tripartite Consultative Committee included the revision of the operation of private employment agencies. The Committee invites the Government to include in its next report updated information on the tripartite consultations held on the matters covered by the Convention (Article 5(1)). In this regard, the Committee invites the Government to provide information relating to the examination of the ratification of the Safety and Health in Mines Convention, 1995 (No. 176), and the Private Employment Agencies Convention, 1997 (No. 181), which might result in the denunciation of the Underground Work (Women) Convention, 1935 (No. 45), and the Fee-Charging Employment Agencies Convention (Revised), 1949 (No. 96), (Article 5(1)(c) and (e) of the Convention).
