Extractions: Workers' human rights in El Salvador are systematically violated by employers while the government disregards or even facilitates the abuses, Human Rights Watch said in a report released today. From December 8-12, El Salvador will be participating in the final round of negotiations for the U.S.-Central America Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA), a proposed trade pact with profound implications for labor rights. The 110-page report, Deliberate Indifference: El Salvador's Failure to Protect Workers' Rights , documents serious violations of workers' human rights and examines the role of the government. It features case studies in the private and public sectors, in manufacturing and service industries, and concludes that workers face an uphill battle to exercise their rights, regardless of the sector. Three of the highlighted companies supplied internationally known, U.S.-based apparel corporations. Human Rights Watch found that employers delay salary payments, fail to pay overtime due, deny mandatory bonuses and vacation payments, and pocket workers' social security contributions, preventing them from receiving free public health care. Most pervasively, employers use myriad tactics to violate workers' right to freedom of association.

El Salvador Government And Politics Government and Politics. SINCE THE REFORMIST COUP of 1979, El Salvador hasexperienced wrenching political turmoil as numerous actors, movements, http://www.country-studies.com/el-salvador/government-and-politics.html
Extractions: Government and Politics Although the system established by the Constitution of 1983 was functional, some observers questioned its legitimacy because it excluded the Salvadoran left from the political process. As the 1989 presidential elections approached, however, these claims lost some of their validity in the face of the return to El Salvador of such opposition figures as Guillermo Manuel Ungo Revelo and Ruben Zamora Rivas, the establishment of the Social Democratic Party and the possibility, however dubious, of a settlement between the government and the Farabundo Marti National Liberation Front-Revolutionary Democratic Front within the framework of the Central American Peace Agreement signed in Esquipulas, Guatemala, on August 7, 1987 (the so-called Arias Plan). Observers were reluctant to predict the odds of successful implemention of a genuine democratic system in El Salvador, a country with no real democratic tradition to draw on, where economic conditions were tenuous at best and where a destructive and divisive insurgent conflict wore on with no resolution in sight. It was clear, however, that the El Salvador of the late 1980s was different from the El Salvador of the 1970s and that further change was inevitable, even if the exact nature of that change remained uncertain.

Extractions: GOVERNMENT El Salvador is a democratic republic governed by a president and an 84-member unicameral Legislative Assembly. The president is elected by universal suffrage and serves for a 5-year term by absolute majority vote. A second round runoff is required in the event that no candidate receives more than 50% of the first round vote. Members of the assembly, also elected by universal suffrage, serve for 3-year terms. The country has an independent judiciary and Supreme Court. Political Landscape More than 35,000 eligible beneficiaries from among the former guerrillas and soldiers who fought the war received land under the peace accord-mandated land transfer program, which ended in January 1997. The majority of them also have received agricultural credits. The international community, the Salvadoran Government, the former rebels, and the various financial institutions involved in the process continue to work closely together to deal with follow-on issues resulting from the program. National Civilian Police The civilian police force, created to replace the discredited public security forces, deployed its first officers in March 1993, and was present throughout the country by the end of 1994. The National Civilian Police (PNC) has about 16,500 officers. The United States, through the International Criminal Investigative Training Assistance Program (ICITAP), led international support for the PNC and the National Public Security Academy (ANSP), providing about $32 million in non-lethal equipment and training since 1992.
Extractions: Central America and Mexico Report Home The Jesuit-run Central America University (UCA) has begun a new campaign to force the government to reopen the investigation of the murders of six Jesuit priests [and two women co-workers] in 1989. So far, the conservative government of President Francisco Flores has refused. The reasons cited are that new trials would violate the law and would wreck the reconciliation that came with the 1992 peace accords. Click here to receive a FREE copy of the current issue or subscribe to the Report with our Subscription Form In November 1989, military personnel besieged the university where the six priests lived and killed them along with their housekeeper and her daughter. The murders and other military attacks on civilians were committed at the height of a guerrilla offensive against the capital. In 1993, the Truth Commission, mandated by the peace accords ending the 12-year armed conflict, issued its report on atrocities committed by both the government and the guerrilla Farabundo Martí Front for National Liberation (FMLN). The report concluded that members of the army's high command ordered the Jesuit murders, officers of the military organized them, and element's of the army's Atlacatl Battalion carried them out.
