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

Collective Bargaining Convention, 1981 (No. 154) - Argentina (Ratification: 1993)

The Committee notes the observations on the application of the Convention made in 2014 by the Confederation of Workers of Argentina (CTA Autonomous), the General Confederation of Labour of the Argentine Republic (CGT RA) and the Argentine Federation of the Judiciary (FJA) relating to the denial of the right of workers in the judiciary to collective bargaining.

The Committee notes that this issue was addressed in 2012 by the Committee on Freedom of Association (see 364th Report, Case No. 2881, paragraph 231), which recommended the Government, “pursuant to Article 5 of Convention No. 154, to take measures adapted to national conditions, including legislative measures if necessary, to promote collective bargaining between the judicial authorities and the trade union organizations concerned”. The Committee invites the Government to follow the recommendations of the Committee on Freedom of Association and recalls that the technical assistance of the Office is available.

[The Government is asked to report in detail in 2015.]
