Convention (n° 105) sur l'abolition du travail forcé, 1957 - Kiribati (Ratification: 2000)

Article 1(d) of the Convention. Sanctions for participating in strikes. The Committee notes with satisfaction that the Industrial Relations Code (Amendment) Act, 2008, has repealed a provision in section 30 of the Industrial Relations Code, which imposed sanctions of imprisonment (involving compulsory prison labour) against unlawful strikes. The Committee also notes with satisfaction that the same Act has repealed a provision in section 37 of the Industrial Relations Code, which imposed similar sanctions in cases where a strike might “expose valuable property to the risk of destruction, loss or serious injury”.
