Convenio sobre el derecho de sindicación y de negociación colectiva, 1949 (núm. 98) - Filipinas (Ratificación : 1953)

With reference to its previous comments concerning the need to encourage and promote collective bargaining in the public sector, the Committee notes the information supplied by the Government in its report according to which the draft Civil Service Code is still being reviewed by Parliament which has yet to approve it before its adoption.

Recalling the importance of the development of collective bargaining in the public sector with the only possible exception of public servants engaged in the administration of the State in order to ensure the full application of Articles 4 and 6 of the Convention, the Committee firmly hopes that the said legislation will be adopted shortly. It requests the Government to provide a copy of the above-mentioned Code as soon as it is adopted.
