action_plan:

• Three and a half years have elapsed since the adoption of the decree regulating the elections of workers’ representatives to joint committees in Qatar. The ILO is preparing a study to take stock of the lessons learned during this time and accordingly make recommendations for the mandatory roll-out of joint committees. Recommendations will cover thresholds, needed institutional capacities, and joint committee models, all of them organized by sector. The study will be drafted in November 2022. • With the Embassy of the Netherlands, the ILO and MoL have organized trainings for 204 joint committee members from 37 joint committees on information, consultation, and negotiation rights. The trainings took please between 2020 and 2022. To ensure the sustainability of the training beyond 2023, the Embassy of the Netherlands, ILO and MoL are developing a handbook and training of trainers on employee participation rights for the hospitality sector, to be managed by the CLMCC. Meanwhile, trainings will continue in 2023 to cover the remaining joint committees.

title:

Recommendation 7: Promote legislative reform to make Joint Committees become mandatory for all workplaces with/above a certain number/threshold of workers. To consolidate the results obtained, the ILO should provide technical support to MADLSA for the development of regulations that make joint committees mandatory for all workplaces with /above a certain number of workers. MADLSA should assess the viability of expanding the role of joint committees so that they are enabled to carry out negotiations, and should monitor the implementation of their results.
