Labour Clauses (Public Contracts) Convention, 1949 (No. 94) - Uruguay (Ratification: 1954)

The Committee notes that the Government's report contains no reply to its comments. It hopes that the next report will include full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

Article 2(2) and (3) of the Convention. The Committee notes that the Ministry of Transport and Public Works has drafted a clause to be included in public contracts, and that the Ministry of Labour and Social Security has approved it. Please indicate whether any consultation has taken place with the organisations of employers and workers concerned on the terms of the clause. Please also forward a copy of the approved clause and samples of public contracts of the types referred to in Article 1(1)(c) of the Convention.

Articles 4(a)(ii). Please indicate that provisions require the posting of notices informing the workers of their conditions of work.

Article 4(b)(i). Please provide in the next report copies of the Work Control Form introduced by Decree No. 392/980 of 16 June 1980, which was not received with the report.

Article 5(2). The Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate what measures have been taken to enable the workers concerned to obtain the wages to which they are entitled.
