Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2000, published 89th ILC session (2001)

Tripartite Consultation (International Labour Standards) Convention, 1976 (No. 144) - Algeria (Ratification: 1993)

The Committee notes the Government’s report which provides elements of information in reply to its direct request of 1998. The Government indicates, without other details, that regular consultations are held with the most representative organizations of employers’ and workers’ on all economic and social issues, and particularly those relating to labour legislation and the matters set out in Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Convention. The Government also states that it envisages the establishment of a tripartite body specifically entrusted with matters relating to international labour standards. The Committee welcomes this information and encourages the Government to consult the representative organizations, in accordance with Article 2, paragraph 2, on the nature and form of the consultation procedures to be established. The Government is requested to provide any relevant information on the progress achieved in this respect.

The Committee is, however, of the opinion that the Government’s report does not in general terms provide any new information enabling it to assess fully the manner in which effect is given to the various provisions of the Convention to which it referred in its previous comments. It therefore once again requests the Government to provide a report replying in a full and detailed manner to each of the questions in the report form under Articles 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 of the Convention.
