Convention (n° 111) concernant la discrimination (emploi et profession), 1958 - Argentine (Ratification: 1968)

COVID-19. The Committee notes the observations of the Confederation of Workers of Argentina (CTA Autonomous) received on 30 September 2020, alleging that in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, domestic workers, a group in a situation of high vulnerability with regard to their rights, do not have access to the leave, benefits and protection established by the Government, including protection against dismissal and suspension of their contract of employment. The CTA Autonomous also alleges violations of the Convention affecting migrant, unregistered and outsourced workers and workers with disabilities. The Committee requests the Government to send its comments regarding these observations and in response to its previous comments.
