Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1996, publiée 85ème session CIT (1997)

Convention (n° 94) sur les clauses de travail (contrats publics), 1949 - Djibouti (Ratification: 1978)

The Committee notes with regret 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 following matters raised in its previous direct request:

The Committee took note of the Government's statement in its last report that the provisions of the Convention could not be applied because Djibouti has no legislation in this area.

The Committee reminds the Government that on ratifying this Convention, one of the obligations a State assumes is to guarantee that contracts awarded by a public authority (including contracts for the supply of services in accordance with Article 1, paragraph 1(c)(iii), of the Convention) include clauses ensuring to the workers concerned conditions of labour which are not less favourable than those established for work of the same character in the same district (Article 2).

The Committee hopes that the Government will soon take the necessary measures to ensure that effect is given to the Convention and suggests that it may wish to examine the possibility of requesting ILO assistance to review the rules on public contracts in order to bring them into conformity with the provisions of the Convention. It asks the Government to indicate any progress made in this respect in its next report.
