Articles 1 and 2 of the Convention. Application of the Convention and scope of collective bargaining in the public service. In its previous comments, the Committee noted that, based on the information provided by the Government, although labour relations between employers and workers in establishments or enterprises in the private and semi-public sectors were governed by the general collective agreement of 30 December 2005, no special modalities of application of the Convention had been fixed for the whole or part of the public service. In this regard, the Committee observed that persons appointed as permanent officials within the public administration were subject to the General Public Service Regulations (Act No. 2015-18 of 2 April 2015), which provide for advisory bodies such as the Public Service Joint Advisory Committee within the Ministry for the Public Service (section 8 of the Regulations), or joint administrative committees in each ministerial department or state institution (section 9). The Committee notes that the Government reiterates that no special modalities of application of the Convention have been fixed for the whole or part of the public service. However, the Government indicates that there are Sectoral Social Dialogue Committees (CSDS) in most ministries, which are technical dialogue forums which enable negotiations to be held on all the subjects specified in Article 2 of the Convention, and that “these committees are to evolve over time into joint administrative committees”, which are reported to be of a consultative nature. Recalling that, as required by the Convention, public employees shall not only be consulted within joint bodies, but shall also be able to bargain collectively their working conditions and terms of employment, the Committee requests the Government to provide information on the work of the above-mentioned joint committees, and on the effective mechanisms that enable public employees to bargain collectively their working conditions and terms of employment. The Committee requests the Government to provide information in its next report on any developments in this regard and on any collective negotiations held in the public sector.
Article 5. Promotion of collective bargaining. The Committee notes the information provided by the Government regarding the improvement of social dialogue with employers and the convening of social dialogue bodies.
