Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2004, published 93rd ILC session (2005)

Tripartite Consultation (International Labour Standards) Convention, 1976 (No. 144) - Mozambique (Ratification: 1996)

1. Tripartite consultations required by the Convention. In response to the direct request of 2001, the Government indicates that tripartite consultations took place with regard to the revision of Labour Act No. 8/98. The social partners were also consulted on minimum wages, on political, economic and social matters, and regarding preparations for the 2004 Ouagadougou Summit. Since the Committee does not have information to enable it to evaluate the application of the present Convention, it again requests the Government to provide precise information on the consultations held on each of the matters set out in Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Convention during the period covered by the report, specifying their purpose, their frequency and the nature of any reports or recommendations resulting from them. Please specify any consultations that were held within the Labour Advisory Commission on the matters covered by the Convention.

2. Operation of the consultative procedures. In its previous direct request, the Committee noted the tripartite consultations which were held in conformity with Article 6. It again requests the Government to provide information on the outcome of these consultations.
