Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2006, published 96th ILC session (2007)

Referring to its observation and to its previous comments (1999), the Committee notes once again that, according to the statistics compilation for 2004, one of the high-risk branches of employment for the health and safety of workers is the one shown in the tables under the heading “Community services and social services”. In it there have been 101 industrial accidents resulting in permanent disability for 117 workers. As the Government has not supplied the details requested allowing the risks faced by workers to be identified, the Committee would be grateful if it would do so in a full and detailed manner in its next report.
