Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2016, published 106th ILC session (2017)

Right to Organise and Collective Bargaining Convention, 1949 (No. 98) - Chad (Ratification: 1961)

The Committee notes with regret that the Government’s report has not been received.

The Committee notes the observations of the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC), received on 31 August 2016, reporting cases of violations of trade union rights, particularly against the Confederation of Trade Unions of Chad (UST) and the National Union of Higher Education Teachers and Researchers (SYNECS). The Committee requests the Government to provide its comments on this matter, and on the ITUC’s previous observations (unilateral suspension of a national agreement on minimum wages and obstacles to collective bargaining in the petroleum sector).

The Committee trusts that the Government will be more cooperative in the future and provide the information requested.
