The Committee notes the Government’s first report.

Article 4 of the Convention. The Committee notes that, according to section 61(2) of the Labour Code, if an enterprise is privatized, the collective agreement is considered to be unilaterally terminated, irrespective of its validity period. The Committee considers that the privatization of an enterprise should not in itself result automatically in the extinction of the obligations resulting from the collective agreement and that the parties should be able to take a decision thereon. The Committee therefore requests the Government to take the necessary measures to amend section 61(2) of the Labour Code to that effect.

The Committee notes section 7(7) of the Code, which provides that employment relations of civil servants as well as of the employees of the Central Bank of Armenia are regulated by the Labour Code, if not otherwise stipulated by the relevant legislation. The Committee requests the Government to specify the categories of workers not enjoying trade union and collective bargaining rights and to indicate, in this respect, the relevant legislative provisions.
