The presentation included a lunch. During the presentation the legal, institutional and financial aspect of CGOA was discussed and the importance of ratification of the covenant C151 of the International Labour organization (ILO), who regulates the labor relations in public administration, was highlighted. This agreement was ratified by Cura\u00e7ao in 2016. Last year Cura\u00e7ao submitted its first compliance report with this agreement to the head office of ILO in Geneva, Switzerland. In here, it was concluded that Cura\u00e7ao generally speaking, complies with this agreement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Based on questions- and remarks made by\/from the guests during the meeting of last Wednesday, it could be concluded that the majority of the countries in Latin America and the Caribbean are not familiar with a similar platform as CGOA. Thus, for many it was an eye-opener, while the police unions of Aruba, Bonaire and Sint Maarten, who were guests of NABP, brought forward that their dialogue with their respective governments take place in a way not to be compared with CGOA. Consequently, they need to make certain adjustments and formalize their bipartite social dialogue with employers in a more effective way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">At the end the attendees exchanged thoughts and emphasized the need to work together in close colaboration in the future not only to learn from each others strong points but also to maintain friendly ties.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">On the picture: an impresion of the encounter.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The central theme during the presentation on functioning of CGOA in the light of the 50th years of celebration of NAPB<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":111,"featured_media":20097,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"off","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","wds_primary_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[67,8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13332","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-2019-en","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cgoacuracao.cw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13332","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cgoacuracao.cw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cgoacuracao.cw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cgoacuracao.cw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/111"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cgoacuracao.cw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13332"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/cgoacuracao.cw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13332\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cgoacuracao.cw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20097"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cgoacuracao.cw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13332"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cgoacuracao.cw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13332"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cgoacuracao.cw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13332"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
