Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2005, Publicación: 95ª reunión CIT (2006)

Convenio sobre el derecho de sindicación y de negociación colectiva, 1949 (núm. 98) - Angola (Ratificación : 1976)

The Committee notes the Government’s report.

1. Article 4 of the Convention. The Committee noted previously that section 12 of Act No. 20-A/92 of 14 August 1992 on the right to collective bargaining provides that collective agreements may not contain provisions relating to fiscal and price policy measures. The Committee considers that the wording of this section might lead to a restrictive interpretation of the right to collective bargaining. The Committee had requested the Government in its previous comments to specify the scope of this provision and to provide examples of cases of its application. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that the National Tripartite Commission is currently discussing the issue. The Committee requests once again the Government to indicate the scope of section 12 of Act No. 20-A/92 on the right of collective bargaining and to provide examples of cases of its application.

The Committee notes the Government’s indication that the Strike Act and the Trade Union Act are being revised. In these circumstances, the Committee hopes that any modification to these Acts will take into consideration the matters raised in this comment.

2. The Committee once again requests the Government to provide information on the collective agreements in force concluded at the national, regional and local levels and on the number of workers covered.
