Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2014, published 104th ILC session (2015)

Tripartite Consultation (International Labour Standards) Convention, 1976 (No. 144) - Madagascar (Ratification: 1997)

Articles 2 and 5 of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. ILO technical assistance. The Committee notes the observations of the Trade Union Confederation of Malagasy Revolutionary Workers (FISEMARE), which were transmitted to the Government in September 2014. FISEMARE indicates that the ILO responded to the social partners’ requests by supporting various training and awareness-raising activities for them. FISEMARE refers to a national tripartite workshop on trade union organizations and representativeness that was held in June 2014, as well as a tripartite meeting to relaunch the finalization and adoption process of the Decent Work Country Programme (DWCP) that was held in August 2014 in partnership with the ILO. The Committee requests the Government to provide its comments in this respect. It hopes that the Government will be able to provide updated and detailed information on the manner in which representatives of employers and workers have been chosen for the purposes of the procedures provided for in the Convention (Article 3) and on the content and outcome of the tripartite consultations held on each of the points set forth in Article 5(1).
