Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2009, published 99th ILC session (2010)

Tripartite Consultation (International Labour Standards) Convention, 1976 (No. 144) - Bosnia and Herzegovina (Ratification: 2006)

Tripartite consultations required by the Convention. The Committee notes the Government’s report received in August 2009. It recalls that each of the entities constituting Bosnia and Herzegovina – the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Republika Srpska and the Brčko District – holds tripartite consultations and is autonomous with regard to labour and employment issues. The Committee notes that an Economic and Social Council was established by Decree No. 110 of 26 November 2008 in the Republika Srpska charged with consultations on the matters covered by the Convention. The Committee would welcome receiving further information on the consultations held in the Republika Srpska by the Economic and Social Council. It also hopes that the next report will include more precise information on the effect given by the other entities constituting Bosnia and Herzegovina to the provisions of the Convention.

Article 4, paragraph 2. Financing of training. The Committee notes that the funding of the work of the Economic and Social Council is ensured in the budget of the Republika Srpska. The Committee invites the Government to provide in its next report the provisions in force in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Brčko District describing arrangements made with regard to the financing of any necessary training of participants on the consultative procedures.
