There will be no ILO Commission of Inquiry against Fiji.
This is after the International Labour Organisation Governing Body decided not to refer the Article 26 Complaint filed against Fiji and closed the Article 26 complaint at the 326th Session yesterday.
The Fijian Government delegation was led by the Acting Permanent Secretary for Employment, Productivity and Industrial Relations Salaseini Daunabuna.
Also in attendance were the representatives of the Fiji Commerce and Employers Federation’s Chief Executive Officer, Nesbitt Hazelman and the Fiji Trade Union Congress National Secretary, Felix Anthony.
The delegation informed the Governing Body about the success of the ILO Tripartite Mission earlier this year and the subsequent signing of the single Joint Implementation Report between the tripartite parties.
The delegation stated that there will now be pursuit of pertinent projects with ILO such as Decent Work for All, Disabilities in Workplace, Gender Parity and Increasing Employment Opportunities for Youths.
The closure of the Article 26 Complaint means that Fiji will also embark on rebuilding labour relations and harnessing sustainable labour practices through social dialogue with the social partners and ILO.
