Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2007, published 97th ILC session (2008)

Right to Organise and Collective Bargaining Convention, 1949 (No. 98) - Cyprus (Ratification: 1966)

The Committee takes note of the observations of the Government of the Republic of Cyprus regarding the comments made by the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) according to which there are acts of interference in trade unions by some employers in the north of the island, as well as a lack of adequate and sufficiently dissuasive legal protection against acts of anti-union discrimination.

The Committee takes due note of the statements of the Government according to which the ITUC comments refer to allegations taking place in the areas that are not under the effective control of the Government and that it is therefore not possible to provide any information and/or comments or to take any action.
