The Committee notes the Government’s report.

The Committee recalls that its previous comments referred to the need for the national legislation to contain specific provisions to protect workers against anti-union discrimination at the time of recruitment and during employment, to protect workers and their organizations against acts of interference by employers, and that these provisions should be accompanied by effective procedures and sufficiently dissuasive sanctions.

The Committee notes the Government’s indication that under the provisions of section 3 of the draft Labour Code, drawn up with ILO technical assistance, no employer may take into account the trade union activity or affiliation of workers in decisions regarding contracts, wages and work organization, termination of employment contracts, etc. In this context, the Committee recalls that by virtue of the provisions of Article 2 of the Convention, national legislation should also include provisions aimed at protecting workers’ and employers’ organizations against any acts of interference by each other, and that it is necessary to provide expressly for legal procedures and sufficiently dissuasive sanctions against acts of anti-trade union discrimination and interference so as to ensure the effective application of Articles 1 and 2. The Committee draws the attention of the Government to the availability of further ILO technical assistance concerning these questions, in the process of drafting the new Labour Code, and hopes that this Code will be in full conformity with the provisions of the Convention and will be adopted in the near future. The Committee asks the Government to indicate in its next report progress achieved in this regard.
