Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 2001, publiée 90ème session CIT (2002)

Convention (n° 87) sur la liberté syndicale et la protection du droit syndical, 1948 - Bosnie-Herzégovine (Ratification: 1993)

The Committee notes with regret that the Government’s report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation which read as follows:

The Committee requests the Government to provide detailed information in reply to the questions raised in the report form concerning the application of this fundamental Convention.

The Committee also requests the Government to provide the text in force of the Labour Code as well as the texts governing freedom of association, the right to organize, the settlement of collective disputes and the right to strike.

Noting the conclusions of the Committee on Freedom of Association in Case No. 2053 (324th Report, approved by the Governing Body at its 280th Session, March 2001), the Committee observes that the time limitations prescribed in the legislation for the registration of associations, including trade unions, are very short and, in practice, are equivalent to a system of previous authorization. The Committee requests that the Government amend the legislative provisions concerning trade union registration in order to bring them into conformity with the Convention.
