Convenio sobre el derecho de sindicación y de negociación colectiva, 1949 (núm. 98) - Haití (Ratificación : 1957)

The Committee notes the Government's report and recalls that in its previous observations it had requested the Government to keep it informed of all developments concerning: (i) the adoption of a specific provision providing for protection against anti-union discrimination at the time of recruitment; (ii) the adoption of provisions guaranteeing, in a general manner, workers adequate protection against acts of anti-union discrimination coupled with effective and expeditious procedures and sufficiently dissuasive sanctions; and (iii) the amendment of section 34 of the Decree of 4 November 1983, which confers on the Social Organizations Service of the Department of Labour and Social Welfare the power to intervene in the drawing up of collective agreements.

In its previous report, the Government had indicated that section 34 of the Decree of 4 November 1983 was in the process of being amended and that the adoption of specific provisions which provide protection against anti-union discrimination were being examined. The Committee regrets that the Government is unable to provide specific information on these points in its present report and is now bound to reiterate its previous comments. The Committee expresses the firm hope that the Government will take the necessary measures to bring its law in to full conformity with the provisions of the Convention and requests the Government to keep it informed of any developments in this respect.
