Freedom of Association and Protection of the Right to Organise Convention, 1948 (No. 87) - Tunisia (Ratification: 1957)

The Committee had previously noted that, under section 251 of the Labour Code, a person sentenced to a term of imprisonment of more than three months is prohibited from becoming an executive member or administrator of an occupational organization. While noting that this provision does not apply to offences that are political or trade union in character, the Committee nevertheless requests the Government to provide, in its future reports, information on any cases of inability or disqualification which may have occurred in relation to this provision.
