Article 4(2) of the Convention. Financing of training. In response to the Committee’s previous comments, the Government indicates that the Technical sub-Committee workshops for the determination of the 2021 and 2022 National Daily Minimum Wage (NDMW) of the National Tripartite Committee (NTC) were funded from the budgetary allocation of the Ministry of Employment and Labour Relations. The Government further indicates that mechanisms has been put in place to ensure funding and to provide training for members of the NTC in subsequent years. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the number of trainings provided to the members of NTC, including information concerning the frequency, nature and content of the training that have taken place.
Article 5(1). Effective tripartite consultations. The Government reports that it has organized capacity-building workshops on dispute resolution, social dialogue and reporting on international labour standards for socio-economic development in collaboration with the social partners. Additionally, the Government has constituted a tripartite working group to support the reporting process on international labour standards. The Committee invites the Government to continue to provide information on effective tripartite consultations held on all the matters relating to international labour standards covered by the Convention, in particular with regard to questionnaires on items on the agenda of the Conference (Article 5(1)(a)) and the proposals to be made in connection with the submission of the instruments adopted by the Conference to the National Assembly (Article 5(1)(b)).
Article 5(1)(c). Re-examination of unratified Conventions. The Committee previously requested the Government to provide information on the outcome of tripartite consultations on the re-examination of unratified Conventions, including Conventions Nos 97 and 143, as well as Conventions Nos 122 and 129. It also requested the Government to provide updated information on the nature and outcome of tripartite consultations held concerning Conventions Nos 169 and 181. The Government reports that consultations held with the social partners to re-examine the various unratified Conventions are not yet conclusive. In addition, consultations on Conventions Nos 169 and 181 are still ongoing at the level of the NTC. The Government further indicates that the Ministry has developed a National Labour Migration Policy (2020) in addition to the existing National Migration Policy (2016), both of which take into consideration the processes and requirements for the re-examination of unratified Conventions. Noting the Government’s indication that consultations on the ratification of unratified ILO Conventions, including Conventions Nos 169 and 181, are still ongoing, the Committee reiterates its previous request. In addition, it invites the Government to provide concrete information on progress made in this regard.
COVID-19 pandemic. In response to the Committee’s previous comments, the Government indicates that the NTC has published a ten-point guideline communiqué on occupational health and safety and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on businesses and labour. In addition, the NTC invited the Ghana Employers Association and Organised Labour to disseminate the communiqué and to ensure members’ compliance to avert the spread of the COVID-19 at workplaces and at community level. The Committee invites the Government to continue providing updated and specific information on the measures adopted in relation to tripartite consultations within the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly those intended to build the capacity of constituents and strengthen tripartite mechanisms and procedures, in conformity with Article 4 of the Convention and with Paragraphs 3 and 4 of the Tripartite Consultation (Activities of the International Labour Organisation) Recommendation, 1976 (No. 152), and the challenges and good practices identified.
