Discrimination (Employment and Occupation) Convention, 1958 (No. 111) - Paraguay (Ratification: 1967)

Discrimination on the basis of political opinion. The Committee notes with satisfaction that section 145 of the Public Service Act No. 1626 of 2000 repeals Act No. 200 of 17 July 1970, which gave rise to discriminatory practices on the basis of political opinion and which the Committee had been requesting the Government to repeal explicitly for several years.

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