Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 1993, publiée 80ème session CIT (1993)

Convention (n° 98) sur le droit d'organisation et de négociation collective, 1949 - Grèce (Ratification: 1962)

The Committee notes the discussions at the Conference Committee in June 1992 on collective bargaining and the conclusions of the Committee on Freedom of Association in Case No. 1632 (286th Report, adopted by the Governing Body at its 255th Session, March 1993) concerning the restrictions on collective bargaining for workers in the public sector in the broad sense of the term, enterprises of public interest, local administration organizations and state banks, following the adoption of Act No. 2025 of 1992.

The Committee, in the same way as the Committee on Freedom of Association, expresses the firm hope that, as provided for by Act No. 2025, the Act did lapse on 31 December 1992 and requests the Government to confirm that this is so in its next report. It trusts that in future the Government, in accordance with its undertakings, will emphasize the principle of the voluntary bargaining of collective agreements in order to settle terms and conditions of employment, including those in the public sector.

The Committee requests the Government to keep it informed of developments in the situation in this respect.

[The Government is asked to report in detail for the period ending 30 June 1993.]
