Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2006, publiée 96ème session CIT (2007)

Convention (n° 87) sur la liberté syndicale et la protection du droit syndical, 1948 - Slovénie (Ratification: 1992)

The Committee notes the Government’s report.

In its previous direct request, the Committee noted the Government’s indication that harmonization of the draft Act on collective agreements was expected to continue and that it would be necessary to adopt a joint final decision with the social partners concerning future regulation of strikes whereby it would also be possible for the social partners themselves to decide on strike rules, and requested the Government to keep it informed of any development in respect of the draft laws on collective bargaining and on strikes.

The Committee notes the Government’s indication that strikes are still regulated by Strike Act No. 23/91. It further notes the Government’s statement that, while in 2004 only one violation of the provisions of the Strike Act was identified by the labour inspectorate, no such violations were identified in 2005. Moreover, in 2005, the inspectorate received only a few notifications of organized strikes.

The Committee recalls that in its previous reports, the Government indicated that it would begin drafting new legislation on strikes. The Committee requests the Government to indicate whether the adoption of new legislation regulating strikes is still envisaged.
