Case No 2263 (Argentina) - Complaint date: 29-APR-03

The Latin American Federation of Education and Culture Workers (FLATEC) on behalf of the Argentinian Trade Union of Private Tutors (SADOP)

Allegations

The complainant organization alleges that, ever since a negotiating committee was set up in the private teaching sector in 1999, the employers, in violation of the duty of good faith and the duty to make every effort, as laid down in legislation, have resorted to unfair practices (the refusal to attend meetings, delaying measures, the denial of the right of teachers to bargain collectively in the private teaching sector) in order to avoid negotiating a collective agreement in the private teaching sector. The complainant organization also alleges that, with regard to this situation, the Ministry of Labour has been unhelpful and has not acted in any way, ignoring its obligation to encourage and promote collective bargaining in accordance with Conventions Nos. 98 and 154 and has not penalized the employers in spite of their non-compliance with the legislation and in spite of trade union complaints
