Cas no 1997 (Brésil) - Date de la plainte: 16-OCT. -98 - Clos

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

1. 16. At its June 1999 meeting, the Committee had requested the Government and the complainant "to keep it informed of whether the enterprises of the Porto Alegre port sector (had) denounced the collective agreement as a result of the meeting to which the complainant objected (called by the Executive Group for Port Modernization) and whether sanctions (had) been applied to them for complying with the agreement" (see 316th Report, para. 162).
2. 17. In its communication of 21 September 1999, the Government states that the agreement in question had been denounced by the National Ministry of Labour because it contained provisions in violation of the national legislation (detailed by the Government in its communication and including, for example, the failure to observe a minimum break of 11 hours between two shifts), and that no sanctions had been applied in respect of compliance with the collective agreement.
3. 18. The Committee takes note of this information.
