Convention (n° 98) sur le droit d'organisation et de négociation collective, 1949 - Anguilla

Article 4 of the Convention. Promotion of collective bargaining. Legislative framework. The Committee recalls that it had expected that the adoption of the third instalment of the Labour Code would give full effect to the Convention in respect of the need to ensure that the threshold of representativeness to designate an exclusive agent for the purpose of negotiating collective agreements did not constitute an obstacle to the promotion of free and voluntary collective bargaining in practice. While noting the Government’s commitment to complete the third instalment of the Labour Code at the earliest possibility, the Committee observes that the third instalment is currently in the Government’s long-term legislative plans and without a firm deadline for completion. The Committee therefore requests the Government to expedite the completion of the third instalment of the Labour Code with a view to giving full effect to the Convention and provide information on all steps taken to this effect.

Collective bargaining in practice. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the number of collective agreements signed and in force, the sectors concerned and the number of workers covered by these agreements, and to report on any measures taken to promote the full development and utilization of collective bargaining under the Convention.
