Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2008, published 98th ILC session (2009)

Right to Organise and Collective Bargaining Convention, 1949 (No. 98) - French Southern and Antarctic Territories

The Committee recalls that in its previous direct request it noted that a reform of the Overseas Labour Code was envisaged, providing for the possibility for trade unions representing seafarers on board vessels registered in the French Southern and Antarctic Territories to conclude agreements. The Committee once again requests the Government to provide a copy of the amended Overseas Labour Code once it has been adopted.
