Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1991, published 78th ILC session (1991)

Tripartite Consultation (International Labour Standards) Convention, 1976 (No. 144) - Portugal (Ratification: 1981)

The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government concerning Article 4, paragraph 2, and Article 6 of the Convention. In this connection, it also notes the different points of view expressed on the one hand by the Portuguese Confederation of Industry and the Portuguese Chamber of Commerce and, on the other, by the General Confederation of Portuguese Workers which considers that, generally speaking, the written consultation procedure does not ensure that the Convention is fully applied.

The Committee would be grateful if the Government would continue to supply information on any developments regarding the application of the Convention, particularly as concerns the two provisions mentioned above.
