Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2006, published 96th ILC session (2007)

Freedom of Association and Protection of the Right to Organise Convention, 1948 (No. 87) - Germany (Ratification: 1957)

The Committee notes the comments of the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU) of 10 August 2006, which refer largely to pending issues relating to the legislation and the application of the Convention in practice that are already under examination. The Committee notes the recent communication of the Government which replies to the ICFTU’s comments.

The Committee will examine the ICFTU’s comments and the Government’s reply at its next session and requests the Government, in the context of the regular reporting cycle, to provide its observations for the November-December 2007 session on all the issues relating to the legislation and the application of the Convention in practice raised in its previous observation in 2005 (see 2005 observation, 76th Session).
