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

Convention (n° 98) sur le droit d'organisation et de négociation collective, 1949 - Lesotho (Ratification: 1966)

The Committee notes the Government’s report and the list of collective agreements in force.

The Committee recalls that in its previous direct request it had noted that, under section 35 of the Public Service Act No. 13 of 1995, the Labour Code does not apply to public officers and had requested the Government to specify the scope of this exclusion. As the Government has confirmed that the situation has not changed, the Committee requests that the Government consider adopting measures to amend the legislation with a view to guaranteeing the right to bargain collectively to public administration workers who are not in the State Administration Service.

The Committee also requests the Government to send a copy of the Public Service Act No. 13 of 1995.
