Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2009, published 99th ILC session (2010)

The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

Article 4 of the Convention. Adoption of laws and regulations to ensure the application of the general principles. The Committee notes that section 12 of the consolidated Working Environment Act (Act No. 4 of 4 February 1977) and Ordinance No. 170 of 16 February 1995 on workplaces and work premises ensures the application of Parts I and II of the Convention. The Committee asks the Government to provide information with its next report on measures taken or envisaged to adopt specific guidelines or directives to give effect to the provisions of Recommendation No. 120.

Parts III and IV of the report form. The Committee also asks the Government to provide information with its next report on a general appreciation of the manner in which the Convention is applied, including the number of workers covered by the legislation, if possible disaggregated by sex, and statistical information on labour inspections carried out in order to enable the Committee to fully assess the application of the Convention.
