The Committee notes with satisfaction that the new Private Sector Labour Law No. 6 of 2010 was promulgated in February 2010, as indicated in the Government’s report, and that the fifth Book of the Law regulates workers’ and employers’ organizations as well as trade union rights. The Committee notes, in particular, that section 98 of the Law provides for the right of workers and employers to establish organizations in both the public and private sectors, and that sections 111–132 of the Law regulate collective labour agreements and collective labour disputes. It also notes that section 46 of the Law prohibits the dismissal of a worker for legitimate trade union activities.

The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.
