The Committee has noted with interest the detailed information provided by the Government in its latest report, including the reply to its previous request.

Article 5(e) of the Convention. The Committee notes the Government's indication in its report that guarantees corresponding to those established by Chapter 6, section 10, of the Work Environment Act for safety delegates do not exist for all employees, but that this question can be settled through collective agreements. Referring also to its observation under the Convention, the Committee requests the Government to provide samples of relevant collective agreements and information on any further measures envisaged under the national policy in this regard.
