Article 4 of the Convention. Promotion of collective bargaining. In its previous comments, the Committee requested the Government to continue taking initiatives to promote collective bargaining in all areas, including export processing zones, and to provide information on this matter. In this regard, the Committee notes the Government’s indication that: (i) since 2018 until the first quarter of 2021, a total of 24 collective agreements were signed in the country’s export processing zones, covering and benefiting 79,254 workers, 43,374 of whom are women; and (ii) it will continue to promote collective bargaining and dialogue as an instrument to strengthen labour relations in all the economic sectors of the country.

The Committee takes due note of the statistical information provided relating to collective bargaining in export processing zones, as well as the Government’s intention to continue promoting collective bargaining in general. The Committee hopes that the Government will continue taking measures to strengthen the promotion of collective bargaining in all sectors, including export processing zones, and will provide information on the specific action taken in this regard. The Committee also requests the Government to provide fuller information on the collective agreements signed and in force for all private sector and public sector activities, indicating the number of workers they cover.
