Article 4. Promotion of collective bargaining. In its previous comments, the Committee had noted comments from national trade union organizations concerning the limited number of collective agreements concluded, and the Government’s confirmation that the total number of agreements remained low. The Committee had also noted the Government’s request for technical assistance from the ILO Dakar Office to promote voluntary collective bargaining.

The Committee notes in this respect that a national workshop on collective bargaining was held in Praia on 9, 10 and 11 May 2011, resulting in a national Action Plan on collective bargaining. The Committee notes that, according to the Government, the objectives of this workshop were to: (a) recall the major principles of collective bargaining; (b) enable the stakeholders to evaluate the level of collective bargaining in the country; (c) present to the social partners the methods and procedures of collective bargaining, as well as bargaining techniques; and (d) make recommendations with a view to improving the situation as regards the conclusion of collective agreements. Furthermore, the Committee notes that the priority objectives of the Action Plan are: (1) to consolidate the technical capabilities of the social partners; and (2) to create a national committee for the promotion of collective bargaining.

The Committee notes with interest the adoption of Deliberation of 17 June 2011 establishing the National Committee for the Promotion of Collective Bargaining.

Finally, the Committee notes that: (1) a collective labour agreement was concluded with TAP-Air Portugal and published in the Official Gazette of 16 October 2009; and (2) the collective labour agreement of the private insurance sector is in the process of being revised.

The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the progress made in the area of collective bargaining as part of the Action Plan adopted in May 2011 and of the impact of the measures mentioned above on the number of collective agreements concluded. The Committee also requests the Government to provide information on the National Committee for the Promotion of Collective Bargaining.
