Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2006, publiée 96ème session CIT (2007)

Convention (n° 87) sur la liberté syndicale et la protection du droit syndical, 1948 - Panama (Ratification: 1958)

The Committee notes the Bill to reform the Administrative Careers Act in part. To the extent that the Act applies to public servants not engaged in the administration of the State, the Committee requests the Government to consider introducing provisions to cover the issues in its observation that concern the right to organize of public servants.

The Committee asks the Government to send the Constitutional Court’s decision regarding the complaint challenging the constitutionality of Act No. 8 of 1998 on the right to strike of workers engaged at sea and on inland waterways.

The Committee notes that, for worker-employer relations, the World Trade Zones Bill (to replace the Act on export processing zones) refers to the relevant provisions of the Labour Code. The Committee requests the Government to send a copy of the future Act as soon as it is adopted.
