Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 1995, publiée 82ème session CIT (1995)

The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government in its report.

The Committee recalls that it had considered section 10 of Act No. 408 of 1988, which established the Danish International Ships' Register (DIS), to be contrary to Articles 2, 3 and 10 of the Convention, since it prevented workers who were employed on board Danish ships but who were not residents of Denmark, from being represented in collective bargaining by organizations of their own choosing. The Government stresses that it has called for a discussion at the international level on issues relating to international ships' registers.

While noting the Government's statement in this regard, the Committee nevertheless would request the Government to take steps to ensure that its legislation is amended so that non-resident workers who are employed aboard Danish ships are free to be represented in collective bargaining by organizations of their own choosing. The Committee requests the Government to keep it informed of any progress made in this respect.
