They strongly opposed the sexual harassment and violence convention, he says.
The government took a neutral stand on the ILO Convention on Sexual Harassment and Violence because it did not wish to be in conflict with its stakeholders.
"In the spirit of tripartism, which is the core value of international labour standards, our ministry consulted with MTUC and MEF and was informed that both parties had a strong opposition towards the convention. "The heavily debated issue was about the list of vulnerable groups which initially included LGBT but later, due to a compromise by EU countries and employers, this was excluded," he said.
He also said the government was committed to ensuring that labour rights were protected, including from violence and harassment at the workplace.
