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

Right to Organise and Collective Bargaining Convention, 1949 (No. 98) - Cabo Verde (Ratification: 1979)

Display in: French - SpanishView all

The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation which read as follows:

Very low number of collective agreements. The Committee had noted that the Government has sent copies of two collective agreements (telecommunications and private security) and indicated that collective bargaining must be voluntary and that the Government’s role is to promote it without forcing it. The Government added that the Office’s technical assistance to strengthen the capacities of the social partners in collective bargaining techniques would contribute to improving the situation. The Government indicates that the social partners are in agreement to request this technical assistance.

The Committee requests again the Government to continue its efforts to promote collective bargaining and hopes that the technical assistance requested by the Government with the agreement of the social partners will be provided in the near future.

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the very near future.
