Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 1991, publiée 78ème session CIT (1991)

Convention (n° 150) sur l'administration du travail, 1978 - Espagne (Ratification: 1982)

The Committee notes the observations made by the General Union of Workers (UGT) concerning the application of Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Convention. According to the UGT, the necessary consultation, co-operation and negotiation do not take place in the determination of basic national labour policy: participation of the social partners occurs only after basic policies are determined. The UGT calls for changes in the system of "institutional participation" in order to achieve the aim of the Convention, which is to involve employers' and workers' representatives in the labour administration.

The Committee would be grateful if the Government would give its views on this matter in its next report.

[The Government is asked to report in detail for the period ending 30 June 1991.]
