How do you identify the applicable agreement?

  1. 1

    Determine scope

    For an employer in Dakar, do not default to an older instrument. Check the 2019 scope and branch classification.

  2. 2

    Verify the applicable version

    Request full text, dates, beneficiaries and exclusions from signatories and the labour authority. Distinguish branch agreement, company agreement and statutory minimum.

Sources and verification method

Entries distinguish consulted texts from references only identified in a catalogue, announcement or secondary source. A link to a reproduction is not official certification. Desk research does not replace checking signatures, filing, extension, amendments and any termination with the court registry, labour authority or signatories. No agreement is inferred merely because an industry exists.

Editorial summary: Kernel. Practical cases are illustrative, not determinations of applicability. English translations are informative; the original text prevails. This information is not legal advice.
