Convention (n° 98) sur le droit d'organisation et de négociation collective, 1949 - Erythrée (Ratification: 2000)

Article 4 of the Convention. Regulation of collective bargaining. The Committee notes that section 2182 of the Civil Code adopted in 2015 provides for the possibility of concluding collective agreements and that the second paragraph of this provision provides that the procedure for collective bargaining, the form and content of a collective agreement, and the duration of the agreement shall be determined by special legislation. Considering that the Labour Proclamation of 2001 regulates collective agreements and the procedure for collective bargaining in its sections 99–114, the Committee requests the Government to clarify whether section 2182 of the Civil Code should be understood as referring to the above-cited provisions of the Labour Proclamation.

Promotion of collective bargaining in practice. The Committee notes the information provided by the Government on the number of registered collective agreements. It requests the Government to provide updated information on the number of collective agreements concluded and in force, the sectors concerned and the number of workers covered by these agreements in its next report.
