Convention (n° 94) sur les clauses de travail (contrats publics), 1949 - Cuba (Ratification: 1952)

The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its report in relation to the promulgation of Act No. 116 of 20 December 2013 issuing the Labour Code and Decree No. 326 of 12 June 2014 issuing regulations for implementing the Labour Code. The Government indicates that section 20 of the Labour Code establishes that any contractual clause contrary to the law shall be considered null and void. Moreover, the Committee refers to its comments regarding the Employment Policy Convention, 1964 (No. 122), in which it noted recent developments in the country’s social and economic system as a result of the updating of the economic model. The Committee nevertheless once again notes that the Convention continues to be practically without effect. The Committee requests the Government to provide general information on the manner in which the Convention is being applied, including cases in which the conclusion of public contracts with private employers has been authorized, and the manner in which effect is given to Article 2 of the Convention in such cases. The Committee also requests the Government to send summaries of inspection reports, information on the number and nature of infringements reported and any other information relating to the application in practice of the Convention.
