The Committee notes the information contained in the Government’s report. It recalls that its previous comments concerned the following points.

Article 3 of the Convention. Negotiated minimum service. The Committee had requested the Government to provide the text of any legislation implementing the Labour Code as regards minimum service, as well as any other text relating to the application of the Convention. In its last report, the Government states that the Decree establishing the procedures for implementing a minimum service, as provided for in section 348 of the Labour Code, is under examination by the commission for the preparation of implementing legislation. The Committee once again requests the Government to provide a copy of the above draft Decree so that it can examine its conformity with the provisions of the Convention.

With regard to the comments made in 1998 by the Federation of Energy, Mines and Affiliated Free Trade Unions (FLEEMA) and the Confederation of Free Trade Unions of Gabon (CGSL) regarding the refusal by the directors of the enterprise COGEMAT to allow its personnel to join and participate in FLEEMA trade union activities, on the pretext that they do not belong to the same sector, the Committee notes with interest the Government’s indications that it ordered an investigation to ascertain the truth of these allegations. The Government states that the investigation carried out by the labour inspectorate showed that the CGSL’s allegations were well-founded. The Government thus urged the general management of the COGEMAT to allow its personnel to join and participate in the activities of FLEEMA in full freedom, which it agreed to do.
