Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2013, published 103rd ILC session (2014)

Collective Bargaining Convention, 1981 (No. 154) - Mauritius (Ratification: 2011)

The Committee notes the Government’s first report. It notes, in particular, the statistics provided on the collective agreements registered since 2009. The Committee invites the Government to continue providing such statistics in its next reports and hopes that the Government will also provide information and statistics on collective bargaining in the public sector to enable it to examine the application of the Convention with sufficient data at its disposal.

In addition, noting the 2013 comments by the General Workers Federation (GWF) on the adoption by Parliament in April 2013 of provisions conflicting with the requirements in the Right to Organise and Collective Bargaining Convention, 1949 (No. 98), the Committee will assess their impact on the application of the Convention during its examination of the Government’s second report and in light of the observations that the Government will provide in response. The Committee therefore hopes to receive these observations in the near future.
