The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that the next report will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous comments.
Repetition
Article 5 of the Convention. Consultation, cooperation and negotiation between the public authorities and employers’ and workers’ organizations. The Committee notes the Government’s indication in its report that the National Tripartite Council for Social Dialogue, established by Act No. 62/2011 on social dialogue, is the principal high-level consultation structure on national strategies and policies and the minimum wage policy. The Government adds that the sectoral committees established as dialogue structures under the Government’s Emergency Ordinance No. 28/2009, which are involved in the validation of labour standards and the identification of sectoral labour needs, are not operational due to an absence of voluntary participation by the social partners. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on any measures adopted or envisaged with a view to promoting social dialogue through these sectoral committees.
Article 10. Impact of austerity measures on the conditions of service of labour administration staff and the resources allocated for the discharge of labour administration functions. In its previous comments, the Committee requested the Government to specify the impact of the reforms undertaken, and particularly the austerity measures, on the conditions of service of labour administration staff in the light of the obligations established in Article 10. The Government indicates in this regard that, following consultations with the trade unions in 2012, it has taken measures to increase the salaries of budgeted staff, which had been reduced by 25 per cent as a result of the austerity plan adopted in 2010. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the proportion of the national budget allocated to the Ministry of Labour, the Family, Social Protection and the Elderly for the discharge of labour administration functions and to describe the material resources available to the staff of the labour administration for the discharge of their duties.
Application in practice. The Committee once again requests the Government to provide extracts of reports or other periodic information provided by the principal labour administration bodies, as envisaged in Paragraph 20 of the Labour Administration Recommendation, 1978 (No. 158), which supplements the Convention. It also requests the Government to report any practical difficulties which may be encountered in the application of the Convention and the measures envisaged to overcome them.
