Suites données aux recommandations du comité et du Conseil d’administration - Rapport No. 344, Mars 2007

Cas no 2421 (Guatemala) - Date de la plainte: 20-AVR. -05 - Clos

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

1. 82. The Committee last examined this case at its November 2006 meeting [see 343rd Report, paras 92–95], when it requested the Government to keep it informed on the implementation of the collective agreement applicable to the SNTSG, in particular as regards the granting of trade union leave and the deduction of union dues.
2. 83. The Committee notes the communications of the Government dated 6 November 2006 and 2 January 2007, according to which the Joint Board was set up in November 2004, comprising three delegates and three substitutes from the Ministry of Public Health and Social Welfare and three delegates and three substitutes from the SNTSG. The purpose of the Board is to settle labour disputes and, in that context, on 19 May and 21 October 2005, the Board examined the question of the deduction of trade union dues referred to in this complaint and decided that such deductions were not possible unless legal requirements were met in respect of identifying the union’s members.
3. 84. The Committee notes this information, and hopes that the question of union leave will also be examined in the framework of this Board.
