Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 1999, Publicación: 88ª reunión CIT (2000)

Convenio sobre las cláusulas de trabajo (contratos celebrados por las autoridades públicas), 1949 (núm. 94) - Ghana (Ratificación : 1961)

The Committee has been commenting on the need to bring the national legislation into conformity with Articles 2 and 5 of the Convention (inclusion of labour clauses in public contracts, and application of adequate sanctions and measures to ensure the payment of wages). The Committee noted in its previous observation that the Government had referred the matter to the tripartite National Advisory Committee on Labour for discussion with a view to bringing the national legislation into conformity with the Convention. It notes the Government again mentions the examination by this body of the relationship between the national labour laws and the ratified Conventions for their harmonization. Recalling that the Government has been referring to its intention of changing legislation since 1991, the Committee can only express the hope that progress will be accomplished in the very near future. It suggests that the Government consider consulting the International Labour Office on necessary steps to apply the Convention in this respect.
