Convenio sobre el trabajo portuario, 1973 (núm. 137) - República Unida de Tanzanía (Ratificación : 1983)

The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its 2008 direct request, which read as follows:

Repetition

The Committee notes the replies provided by the Government in November 2007 with regard to its 2005 direct request, including details of the workforce of the Tanzania Port Authority which has a total of 238 dockworkers, 144 permanent and pensionable dockworkers and 94 on three-month renewable contracts. The Authority has also a labour pool for casual dockworkers who are deployed to cover surges in traffic. The Government further indicates that dockworkers are given due consideration when restructuring is envisaged. The Committee refers to its 2005 direct request, and asks the Government to include in its next report specific information on the measures taken, in cooperation with the social partners concerned, to minimize detrimental effects on dockworkers of measures taken when restructuring or privatizing (Articles 4 and 5 of the Convention). It also asks the Government to include information on the number of dockworkers maintained in the registers by the Tanzania Port Authority and on the results achieved at the tripartite level in improving the efficiency of work in ports (Part V of the report form).
