Cas no 1952 (Venezuela (République bolivarienne du)) - Date de la plainte: 05-FÉVR.-98 - Clos

Effect given to the recommendations of the Committee and the Governing Body

1. 98. In its previous examination of the case in November 1999, the Committee requested the Government to inform it about the discussions that were taking place on the payment of wage arrears to trade union officials and members of SINPROBOM who had been dismissed (and subsequently reinstated) as a result of collective action [see 318th Report, para. 88].
2. 99. In communications dated 6 and 18 October and 22 December 1999, SINPROBOM states that the recognition of the promotions due to the firemen who are trade union officials and members of the abovementioned organization has yet to be resolved as only six promotions have taken place. SINPROBOM understands that the resources are being arranged to repay the wage arrears of its trade union officials but it requests the Committee to remain vigilant and call for information from the Government.
3. 100. In a communication dated 4 May 2000, the Government sent a copy of general orders Nos. 001-00 and 002-00 signed by the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Fire Brigade, concerning the promotions of the firemen belonging to SINPROBOM, including the members of the executive committee of SINPROBOM. The total number of promotions is 124.
4. 101. The Committee notes the Government's information that 124 firemen have been promoted. Nevertheless, the Committee observes that the Government has not sent information relating to the matter of the effective payment of the wage arrears of the firemen corresponding to the period during which they were dismissed and asks it to provide some information in this respect.
