Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2003, published 92nd ILC session (2004)

Discrimination (Employment and Occupation) Convention, 1958 (No. 111) - Argentina (Ratification: 1968)

The Committee notes with satisfaction the reply provided by the Government in its report indicating the adoption on 15 September 1999 of the Framework Act regulating public employment (Act No. 25164), which, by virtue of section 4 repeals sections 8(g) and 33(g) of Act No. 22140 which had been considered contrary to the Convention. These provisions prohibited access to the national public administration and required the dismissal of officials who belonged to or had belonged to groups advocating the denial of the principles of the Constitution, or who adhered personally to a doctrine of this nature.

The Committee is raising other matters in a request addressed directly to the Government.
