Article 3 of the Convention. Right of workers’ organizations to organize their activities. The Committee recalls that in its previous comment it had welcomed the Government’s indication that a tripartite Working Group on the Improvement of Labour Legislation established in 2019 would examine, in 2019-2020, the issue of the quorum required for a strike ballot, considered by the Committee as too high, as well as the issue of minimum services requirement, with a view to bringing the Labour Code provisions into conformity with the Convention.
The Committee notes the Government’s indication that due to the COVID-19 pandemic situation, as well as a conflictual situation within the Federation of Trade Unions of Kyrgyzstan (FPK) between its previous and current leadership, the Tripartite Republican Commission has not met for a long period. The Government indicates, however, that the question of lowering the quorum will be discussed by the Tripartite Republican Commission and reiterates its understanding of the need to amend the Labour Code so as to ensure that the minimum service requirement is imposed only in respect of the operations which are strictly necessary to meet the basic needs of the population or to ensure that the relevant services operate safely or without interruption. The Committee expects that the Government will be in a position to report tangible progress in this regard in its next report.
