Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2016, published 106th ILC session (2017)

Right to Organise and Collective Bargaining Convention, 1949 (No. 98) - Cabo Verde (Ratification: 1979)

The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that the next report will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous comments.

Repetition

In its previous comments, having noted the low number of existing collective agreements, the Committee asked the Government to provide information on the impact of the 2011 Plan of Action for collective bargaining on the number of collective agreements concluded and on the work of the National Committee for the Promotion of Collective Bargaining.

The Committee notes the information provided by the Government on the support given by the Directorate-General for Labour, with ILO assistance, to the negotiations for a collective agreement in the hotel sector and on the ILO mission conducted in December 2012 to help draft a collective agreement for the banking sector. However, the Committee notes that it has not received any information on the number of collective agreements concluded since its last comments or on the work of the National Committee for the Promotion of Collective Bargaining. The Committee therefore requests the Government to pursue its efforts to promote collective bargaining, particularly in the context of the National Committee for the Promotion of Collective Bargaining, and to provide information in its next report on the results achieved, particularly in terms of collective agreements signed.
