Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2003, published 92nd ILC session (2004)

The Committee notes the detailed information provided by the Government in its last two reports, in particular the resolution of the General Directorate of Labour of 13 June 2002 approving State Labour Agreement No. II for the Hotel Sector (ALEH), extending the effect of the previous agreement until 31 December 2004. According to the Government, the new agreement leaves open the possibility of including new issues on which the parties may reach effective agreement, while issues not included therein continue to be regulated by provincial collective agreements. In this respect, the Committee notes the list of provincial collective agreements applicable to the hotel sector approved during the period covered by the reports.

The Committee notes the statistical information provided by the Government on the inspections carried out for the period 1997-2002 in the hotels and restaurants sectors and their results. The Committee requests the Government to continue providing, in accordance with Part V of the report form, general information on the application of the Convention in practice, including statistical information on the results of the inspections carried out (violations reported, sanctions imposed, etc.), the percentage of workers in the sector who are covered by collective agreements, recent studies on their working conditions, and any other information relating to the policy to improve the working conditions of the workers concerned.
