General Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2024, published 113rd ILC session (2025)

Comoros

The Committee notes with deep concern that, for the fourth year, the reports due on ratified Conventions have not been received. In addition, the first reports on the Migration for Employment Convention (Revised), 1949 (No. 97), and the Migrant Workers (Supplementary Provisions) Convention, 1975 (No. 143), due since 2023, were not received. 30 reports are now due, including the first report on Social Security (Minimum Standards) Convention, 1952 (No. 102). Most of the reports due, including on fundamental and governance Conventions, should have included information in reply to the Committee’s comments.

The Committee launches again an urgent appeal to the Government to send its reports without delay and advises it that, even in the absence of these reports, the Committee may fully review the application of these Conventions at its next meeting on the basis of available information.

Recalling that technical assistance was provided on these issues this year by the Decent Work Technical Support Team for Eastern and Southern Africa, the Committee firmly hopes that the Government will soon submit all its reports in accordance with its constitutional obligation and that they will respond to the Committee’s comments.
