Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2020, published 109th ILC session (2021)

Tripartite Consultation (International Labour Standards) Convention, 1976 (No. 144) - Liberia (Ratification: 2003)

The Committee notes with concern 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

Article 5(1) of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. The Government indicates in its report that the Ministry of Labour has been working with the Liberia Chamber of Commerce and Liberia Labour Congress in maintaining a smooth and peaceful work environment. In reply to previous comments, the Government further indicates that the procedures provided for in the Convention regarding consultations can be found in section 4607 of the Labour Act. The Committee once again requests the Government to provide detailed information on the content and outcome of the tripartite consultations held on each of the matters relating to international labour standards covered by the Convention, including information as to the nature of any reports or recommendations made as a result of the consultations. Please also include information as to the frequency of such consultations (Article 5(2)).

Article 5(1)(b). Submission to the National Legislature. The Committee notes that no information was received on the tripartite consultations held on the proposals to be made to the National Legislature in connection with the submission of 21 instruments adopted by the International Labour Conference. The Committee therefore requests the Government to provide information on the effective tripartite consultations held with regard to the submission to the National Legislature of the 17 remaining Conventions and Recommendations adopted by the Conference between 2000 and 2014, as well as the 1990, 1995, 2002 and 2014 Protocols.
