Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2000, publiée 89ème session CIT (2001)

Convention (n° 87) sur la liberté syndicale et la protection du droit syndical, 1948 - France (Ratification: 1951)

The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its report. It also notes the comments of the General Confederation of Labour - Force Ouvrière concerning the difficulties in establishing trade unions and carrying out trade union activities in small and medium-sized enterprises. Furthermore, Force Ouvrière states that in enterprises with fewer than 50 employees there are no facilities permitting the effective exercise of the right to organize and that the rate of authorizations for the dismissal of staff representatives remains abnormally high.

The Committee requests the Government to forward its comments concerning these observations in its next report.

[The Government is asked to report in detail in 2001.]
